Thank you Christina. I'm discussing with the Service Desk as I am finding some reports have annotations copied and others don't, which is not good. Richard

Thank you Ryan! From the Provider Support Manual: T Level qualification – this is the main technical qualification of the programme covering the core and specialist content. This qualification must be recorded for each T Level student by R04 of the first year of study and must be the core aim. T Level qualifications all have the prefix 'T Level technical qualification in' on the find a learning aim service. They also carry the learning aim type code 1468 (T Level technical qualification) in the LARS database. Occupational Specialism – every T Level student must choose an occupational specialism as part of their T Level programme. Although not a qualification in it’s own right it is important that institutions record the occupational specialism each student undertakes. We have set up learning aim class codes (all beginning ZTLOS) for each occupational specialism to enable clear recording. The occupational specialism recorded will determine the level of funding the T Level programme attracts. The occupational specialism therefore, must be recorded in your data at the beginning of the first year of study.   So, it sounds like the ESFA are assuming that the main T Level technical qualification will have all the learning against it - "covering the core and specialist content", and that the T Level occupational specialism is just used to determine funding as it is - "not a qualification in it’s own right", therefore the date can (should?) match the start date of the technical qualification. Of course providers (including us) are not coding the data that way and are timetabling learning against the technical and occupational side at different periods.

We are now getting these as errors instead of warnings, and most of them are FM25 for us.

We have these too, but just as Warnings and not as Errors. I think the ESFA have tweaked the logic and it's triggering incorrectly.
