Documentation

Definition

The Percentage time academic indicates the amount of time, expressed as the % time that the member of staff spends participating in an academic role, i.e. teaching or research including the normal administrative duties undertaken by a teacher or researcher, but excluding time devoted to management or other activities which would not normally form part of the role of a teacher or researcher.

For the HESA individual staff return only employees with a percentage greater or equal than 25 are returned.

It is possible to split the time academic into time research and time teaching and record those values separately. Time research and time academic have to add up to time academic.

Note

It is assumed that Percentage time academic will be 100% in most cases. A reduction is expected only for a limited number of staff. Examples might be members of staff with senior management responsibilities at Head of Department level or above and clinical staff with additional NHS duties.

This is to be a nominal breakdown and should normally be rounded to the nearest 10% (010.0). A single estimated percentage for all Heads of Department would be acceptable. Where the percentage time academic varies over the period an average should be returned.

Example

A lecturer who is appointed as a Pro-Vice-Chancellor and who devotes 40% of his/her time to management activity and the remainder to teaching or research, should have 60% returned for this field.

A clinical senior lecturer who devotes 30% of his/her time to NHS activity and the remainder to teaching or research, should have 70% returned for this field.
