# Routes for publishing
---
[Explore Education Statistics](https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} (EES) is the Department's new dissemination platform, designed to make DFE’s published statistics and data easier to find, access, use and understand.
The platform moved into Public Beta in March 2020 and over the next year will operate in parallel with existing statistics pages on gov.uk as publications are moved to the new platform.
More information on why EES was introduced and the functionality within the platform can be found in these [slides.](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1CJMLxEPngGbTZbn1n4M6huGIeizUmjysthLwU3Zxoq4/edit?usp=sharing){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
The following table outlines the key differences between publishing via EES and the old method via [gov.uk:](https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-education/about/statistics){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
| Previous service: Statistics collections on gov.uk | New service: Explore Education Statistics |
|:------|:------|
| Statisticians request pdf and excel files are uploaded to release pages on gov.uk | Statisticians load csv data files on to the service and use them to build release pages |
| Release attachments are reviewed and approved via emails | Releases are reviewed and approved within the service |
| Release attachments are circulated for pre-release via email 24hours prior to publication date | Pre-release users are invited to preview releases within the service 24 hours prior to publication date |
<div class="alert alert-dismissible alert-warning">
If you are unsure which route to use for publication please contact the [HoP Office](mailto:[email protected]).

# Publication checklist
---
Before releasing statistics for the first time you may want to discuss the new process with key stakeholders and/or pre-release users to make them aware of the new service. You should also inform the [Explore Statistics Mailbox](mailto:[email protected]) and [HoP Office](mailto:[email protected]) teams.
Before you start creating a release in the platform you should have:
* Announced the upcoming release via gov.uk
* Sent metadata form to HoP
* Contacted the BAU team so we can support you with your first release
* Produced your tidy csv data files with appropriate disclosure control
* Produced metadata files for each csv data file
* Ran your data and metadata through our [screener checks](https://rsconnect/rsc/dfe-published-data-qa/)
Before you publish a release you have created in the platform you should have:
* Checked all the data has loaded successfully
* Written footnotes
* Written content (including tables and charts)
* Created a public metadata document
* Created a public pre-release access list
* Ensured methodology information is either linked off to or attached to the release
* Passed the release for higher review (senior sign-off)
* Previewed your release
* Scheduled the release date
* Invited your PRA list to preview 24 hours before it goes live
* Raised a web ticket for the associated gov.uk page
<div class="alert alert-dismissible alert-info">
Word templates for the external metadata, pra-list, and content can be found on [sharepoint](https://educationgovuk.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/DfEStatisticsCoherence/Shared%20Documents/Templates%20-%20Explore%20Education%20Statistics?csf=1&e=7iJoUy){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.

## HoP Office - linking EES from .GOV.UK
---
You will need to arrange a GOV.UK statistics publication page so that it links to EES. Here is how to do that:
Two days ahead of publication, you’ll need to [raise a ticket with the Digital communications (GOV.UK) team](https://dfe.service-now.com/serviceportal?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id=1f40a44ddb50fa005ca2fddabf961922&sysparm_category=611828a6db6c2f403b929334ca9619f6&catalog_id=-1){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} and ask them to **create a new GOV.UK statistics page with a link to EES, connect it to the announcement and add to any collections.**
In your request, you’ll need to include:
- title, summary sentence and ‘detail’ for the new page – you can include a link to previous releases if you want it to be the same
- the link for your EES release – if you don’t have it you can update the ticket when the link is available
- the link for the announcement
- the link of any GOV.UK collections it needs to be added to
- an email with clearance from your deputy director
- an email confirming communications are happy for it to go if it’s for stats that aren’t pre-announced or it’s an update to stats made after publication – so that they can prepare reactive lines
Here are examples of how the page will look like:
- [Primary School Performance Tables 2018](https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/primary-school-performance-tables-2018){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
- [Higher Education Student Statistics 2018 to 2019](https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/higher-education-student-statistics-2018-to-2019){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
<div class="alert alert-dismissible alert-info">
You can find what the link to your EES release will be by looking at the 'Sign off' page within the release dashboard on EES.
</div>
`r knitr::include_graphics("images/EES-public-url.PNG")`
**Text to update the collection page:**
In addition, you will also need to [raise a ticket with the Digital communications (GOV.UK) team](https://dfe.service-now.com/serviceportal?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id=1f40a44ddb50fa005ca2fddabf961922&sysparm_category=611828a6db6c2f403b929334ca9619f6&catalog_id=-1){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} to update your collection page/s with the following text:
> From [publication date], the Department for Education will be publishing the [publication title] on a new statistics site, [Explore Education Statistics (EES)](https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.
When you raise the ticket please ensure that all the documents you submit are in an accesible format as stated in the [accessibility guidance](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/make-your-website-or-app-accessible-and-publish-an-accessibility-statement){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}. There is also [guidance on accessibility for Excel workbooks](https://teams.microsoft.com/l/file/FB7C7F72-90E9-496C-A4CB-318C53190BAC?tenantId=fad277c9-c60a-4da1-b5f3-b3b8b34a82f9&fileType=docx&objectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Feducationgovuk.sharepoint.com%2Fsites%2FDAN%2FShared%20Documents%2FGSS%2FAccessibility%20requirements%20for%20Excel%20workbooksstatistics.docx&baseUrl=https%3A%2F%2Feducationgovuk.sharepoint.com%2Fsites%2FDAN&serviceName=teams&threadId=19:[email protected]&groupId=6572094f-43a3-4537-bcf0-fc27dc6557ed){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} in Teams.

# User engagement
<!-- keep this heading the same on this page, even if moved, as the self-assessment tool links from it -->
---
Being user centred is a key departmental priority. It is critical that we actively engage with the users of our statistics, and not just the ones who shout the loudest. There are thousands of users out there and teams should be actively be getting feedback on their publications from a variety of users - policy colleagues, local authorities, schools, media, and the general public to name but a few.
More information will follow here, though for now if you'd like assistance with this, please contact us.
---
# Re-publishing an old release on EES
---
To fill out the content on EES and help teams and users prepare for the transistion to the new platform we are asking teams to re-publish their latest releases (that were published via gov.uk) on EES where they are abe to.
The main requirement to be able to do this is having your data prepared.

If you have gone through the flowchart above and feel that you are ready to republish something on Explore Education Statistics, then we are here to help you do that. You have two options:
1. The [Statistics Development Team](mailto:[email protected]) can mock up a first draft in the platform for you to then review and edit. For this to happen you'll need to send us the following:
- Details of the release you want to republish
- Underlying data files that have passed the screening checks
- The link to the pdf commentary you previously published
- The link to the methodology you previously published
- Any other documents or information relating to the publication
2. Contact the [Explore Statistics Mailbox](mailto:[email protected]) for permission to access the production environment, telling us about the release you plan to republish, then build your release following the checklist below:
* Run your data and metadata through our [screener checks](https://rsconnect/rsc/dfe-published-data-qa/)
* Upload your data to your release on EES
* Write footnotes
* Create content (including tables and charts)
* Create a public metadata document
* Ensure methodology information is either linked off to or attached to the release
* Passed the release for higher review (senior sign-off)
* Scheduled the release date

Word templates for the external metadata, pra-list, and content can be found on [sharepoint](https://educationgovuk.sharepoint.com/:f:/r/sites/DfEStatisticsCoherence/Shared%20Documents/Templates%20-%20Explore%20Education%20Statistics?csf=1&e=7iJoUy){target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.
If you're ready to recreate a previous gov.uk release on EES please email the [Explore Statistics Mailbox](mailto:[email protected]).
