Dear all
 Under the council tax exemption regulations for students, students are
eligible for exemption as long as they have not completed, withdrawn or
been withdrawn. Therefore this covers intercalating students and those
repeating PT on a FT course

At Teesside we issue exemption certificates for such students, ie who
are studying part-time on a full-time route repeating a year of study.

Apologies if this has been asked before....

We've been having discussions about whether students who are
intercalating are eligible for exemption from Council Tax, and therefore
if we should be producing certificates for those students to show to the
Council.

I've had a look around and many say "yes", some say "no" and several say
that it is up to individual councils to interpret the rules (which makes
it difficult for us).

Does anyone have any clear guidance that they can point me to, or any
experiences they can share?

Thanks
