All aims closed for 22/23 but learner is returning 23/24

You should not be returning any aim - non-accredited or otherwise that is not actual teaching and learning especially across academic years.

IMO you don't need to 'get around' returning a destination record; as they have completed their programme for 22/23 a destination record is expected.

You can return destination records up until R14 in October for 22/23.
When you re-enrol them in Sept. you can add a destination record for 22/23 (with code EDU4). If they don't return you can contact them to find out where they have ended up and return a the relevant code for their actual destination.

The requirement is:

• This data is required both for learners who leave the provider and for learners who are remaining with the same provider to progress to further learning.

So why would you not collect this date?

For all our students completing one programme in a given year, who we know to be returning to us for another year (either staying in FE or progressing to HE/Apps) we bulk create destination records to say exactly that. We also do a mop up of ones that did return, when we weren't expecting them, and add destinations for them too. It's still a destination, even if it's with us again.
