The sampling frame must ensure that the one hundred students selected for interview includes students from: both public and private universities; all four degree programmes selected for detailed research in each university; all the access routes into each university; as many of the under-represented social backgrounds as possible, not only the three target groups prioritised for the scorecard. Developing the sampling frame involves making informed, strategic decisions so that key principles are met. KEY PRINCIPLES: All the students in the sample are non-traditional students. All the students in the sample are currently participating in higher education at the case study sites. Every student selected within the sample is a member of at least one social group that is under-represented within the student body as a whole, at the university where they study. The total sample includes a spread of students who come from a range of social, economic, geographical, religious and cultural backgrounds. The total sample includes a spread of students who have accessed higher education via different routes and programmes e.g. access or pre-sessional courses, affirmative action or quota systems. The total sample includes a spread of students who are studying on different programmes, e.g. high status and low status programmes, professional programmes, programmes where non-traditional students are clustered, and programmes where non-traditional students are heavily under-represented. The total sample includes men and women, people with different dis/abilities and of different ages. Developing a sampling frame Grid 1 is an example of a sampling frame. To complete the sampling frame, we need to identify the number of students from each category within the frame that will be interviewed.

The datasets can help with these decisions. They can be useful to determine the following: What type of student do you consider to be non-traditional? Do you know how many non-traditional students there are in the university? Do you know where they are in the university? How will you trace them? Which datasets will help you? Who could help you access the datasets? Which datasets do you need to identify students that fit each category? How will you identify actual students that fit each of the categories visible in the datasets? How will you select from all the students that fit a category? How many women do you want to include in the sample (vs how many men)? There are more possibilities for types of student than there are spaces in the sample. How will you ensure that the sample includes a range of social and educational backgrounds? Task Complete (and adapt) the decision-tree to identify the groups of students you would like to interview at each university. The key principles must be met by the sample.             SES: socio-economic status. The column headings you put here will depend on how socio-economic status is measured in your context.     Handout 4: Developing the sampling frame PAGE  PAGE 1 A sample of 100 students How many students will be selected from the public university? How many students will be selected from the private university? which social groups are under-represented within the university as a whole? Look at the datasets for each programme: which groups may be sampled from within the programme? Look at the datasets for each programme: which groups will have to be traced outside of the programmes? Where can they be found? Can you identify students who applied through different access routes? Can you identify students with scholarships? Can you identify students with other significant experiences of HE? the sample must include all of these groups Does your sample include students who have different combinations of social and educational experiences? A sample of 100 students No. of students from the private university: No. of students from the public university: the final sample must include all of these groups social groups that are under-represented within the university as a whole Groups that will be traced outside of the programmes, and how they can be found: Groups that can be sampled from within the four programmes (what are the possible combinations of social identities?) Other significant experiences of HE Students with scholarships Scholarship # & location of students in the programmes Students within the sample that applied through different access routes: Access route # & location of students in the programmes Check Does your sample meet the principles listed for the sample?
