Best place to look for the "official" reason is in the ILR Spec:
https://guidance.submit-learner-data.service.gov.uk/24-25/ilr/entity/Learner/field/DateOfBirth
"Monitor and report on provision by learners characteristics, monitor equality and diversity, inform local and national planning, for determining learner ages on particular dates and for analysis of the age structure and profile of the learner population. Validation of funding eligibility for Adult Skills funded learners."

Hi
I have had a challenge on the data we collect for the ILR - the date of birth. Whilst I know it is a requirement, does the ESFA require it for a specified reason - that I can share back?
