In October 2012, we consulted with institutions and other stakeholders on options for significant changes to the way 16-19 education and training is funded. It is now confirmed that for 2013/14 a new fairer, simpler and more transparent funding system will be introduced to support the raising of the participation age.
Under this system, institutions will attract a standard rate of funding for each student weighted for necessary course costs, retention and with additional funding for those at a disadvantage.
