List of Local Authority (LA) ethnicity categories

The Excel spreadsheet, which you can download by clicking here (Excel spreadsheet, 42KB), details the ethnicity codes in use by each LA in England. The list is designed to inform each LA of the codes other LAs are using and will be a useful resource during school-to-school transfers between LAs. The list has an auto filter on the fields for LA name and LA number to enable you to find LA entries easily. The list details the four letter codes being used for data collection by each LA. To match these with the actual category names you should consult the DCSF ethnicity key list. Click here (Excel spreadsheet, 60KB) to go to the key list.
