1. Introduction

This guide helps you understand how we have calculated your 16 to 19 revenue funding allocation and the factors we have applied. The guide is for the 2020 to 2021 academic year and continues to use the 16 to 19 funding formula as the basis of your allocation.

We will base your funding allocation on lagged student numbers plus any agreed exceptions where relevant. Your allocation statement includes student numbers and other factors that affect your funding for 2020 to 2021.

2. Who this note is for

This guide is for further education institutions. Separate guides are available for school and academy sixth forms and special post-16 institutions.

The 바카라 사이트˜Changes for 2020 to 2021바카라 사이트™ section shows the changes to 16 to 19 funding in academic year 2020 to 2021 at a glance, and where the changes are reflected in your allocation statement.

3. Further advice and guidance

We have produced this guide to walk you through your allocation statement.

It바카라 사이트™s important that you also refer to our 16 to 19 funding guidance for 2020 to 2021. The guides will help you to understand how we have calculated your funding allocation for 2020 to 2021. We publish these guides on 바카라 사이트 before the start of the academic year.

You should read this note alongside our detailed guidance on:

4. If there is an error in your data

The figures in the statement are your final funding allocation, which under normal circumstances will not be changed.

We reserve the right to reduce or withdraw your allocation at any stage should issues arise through audit or other processes which

  • significantly affect the data underlying your allocation calculation
  • significantly affect contract compliance, or
  • if we believe that by making an allocation we will be putting public funds at risk

By exception, we will consider evidenced and credible business cases from institutions where there has been a significant error in the data returned by the institution. If you wish to submit a case, please refer to our guidance on thresholds.

This process does not cover business cases for high needs place funding for institutions that are within scope of the high needs place change notification process. The high needs place change notification process is now complete, and we will not review any requests for changes.

5. How to resolve your enquiries

If you have any questions that we have not covered in this or other published guidance, please contact us using our .

6. Changes for 2020 to 2021

Discretionary bursary allocations

  • we have changed the way we calculate discretionary bursary allocations for 2020 to 2021. We will use ILR R14 data and the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2015 to identify instances per student for financial disadvantage, travel and industry placements. We have published information and videos to help you understand why we have made this change

Teachers바카라 사이트™ pension scheme payments

  • we will continue to meet the costs of the additional employer contributions from the Teachers바카라 사이트™ pension scheme (TPS) up to the end of March 2021. Eligible further education institutions will see a new field on their allocation statement for this payment
  • local authorities should apply to the Department for Education for extra funding for TPS costs related to their adult community learning providers through a separate process to cover all of their centrally employed staff covered by the TPS

On the 31 August 2019, the chancellor announced an additional £400m for 16 to 19 education for academic year 2020 to 2021. We have published information about what this means for your 16 to 19 funding allocation. We have listed the changes you will see on your allocation statement below.

National funding rate

  • the national funding rates have increased by 4.7%
  • funding rates for T Levels have increased in line with the new band 5 rate
  • the funding rates for 14 to 16 provision in further education continue to be aligned with the 16 to 19 rates and have also increased in the 2020 to 2021 academic year
  • the funding rates and formula guidance shows 16 to 19 funding rates for 2020 to 2021

Programme cost weighting changes

Level 3 programme maths and English payment

  • we have given extra funding to providers to deliver maths and English to students doing substantial level 3 study programmes and T Levels

High value courses premium

7. Allocation statement 2020 to 2021 - detailed notes

8. Programme funding formula

This section shows the various elements of the funding formula shown on page 1 of your allocation statement and the resulting funding from the application of each. The dates on your allocation statement will show as 바카라 사이트˜2020/21바카라 사이트™. We have written the dates out in full in this guidance for clarity.

Student numbers for 2020 to 2021

National funding rate per student

Retention factor

  • retention rate = retained students ÷ total funded students
  • retention factor = (retention rate ÷ 2) + 0.5
  • we calculate this from the 2018 to 2019 ILR R14 data return

Programme cost weighting

  • the programme cost weighting used is the average for your institution, and has been weighted by the funded hours for each student. We base programme cost weighting on the sector subject area classification for each student바카라 사이트™s core aim. We calculate this from the 2018 to 2019 ILR R14 data return

Disadvantage funding

Large programme funding

Area cost allowance

  • some areas of the country are more expensive to teach in than others, and the area cost allowance weights the allocation to reflect this. The area cost reflects the delivery location of the institution바카라 사이트™s provision and is normally based on delivery postcodes from the ILR

The values on your statement are rounded to various numbers of decimal places. However, we calculate your funding using un-rounded values. This may result in some slight differences when you work through the calculation yourselves.

9. Student numbers (including students aged 19 to 24)

This section explains how we have calculated the student numbers in table 1a of your 16 to 19 revenue funding allocation statement. Some of these options are not relevant to all providers and may not be shown on your statement.

Students

  • student number taken from the data return shown in this row (1.1a) on your statement. For some institutions, we have used a different student number methodology

Ratio

  • if shown, this is the ratio used to uplift the student number in 1.1a. The ratio is based on 2018 to 2019 data using the student number at the census date of 1 November 2018 (taken from either the R04 or R06 return) and the full year student number at R14. Where we바카라 사이트™ve used R06 it바카라 사이트™s referred to as R46

Total lagged student number

  • if a ratio is shown, this figure is calculated by multiplying the student number by the ratio

Exceptional variations to lagged student numbers

  • an increase or decrease applied to the lagged student numbers. This is where we바카라 사이트™ve agreed an exceptional case

Total student numbers for 2020 to 2021

  • this is the 바카라 사이트˜total lagged student number바카라 사이트™ plus 바카라 사이트˜exceptional variations to lagged student number바카라 사이트™
  • if your statement doesn바카라 사이트™t display the 바카라 사이트˜total lagged student number바카라 사이트™ row it is the student number shown in row 1.1a plus 바카라 사이트˜exceptional variations to lagged student number바카라 사이트™

Student number methodology used

  • the methodology used to calculate your total student number to be funded in 2020 to 2021

10. Student number methodology

Our funding rates and formula guidance has full details of how we calculate student numbers for different types of institutions. Our default approach is to base allocations on lagged numbers. The lagged approach applies when there is a reasonably consistent level of delivery over time and applies in most but not all circumstances.

Exceptions to the lagged approach include student numbers for new institutions, closing provision, transferred provision (including in relation to subcontracting), exceptional in-year growth, and in-year closures. In these situations, we may remove an institution from the lagged approach at any point, which may result in a change to their funding allocation.

11. Breakdown of funding by funding band

This section explains how we calculate funding bands in table 1b of your 16 to 19 revenue funding allocation statement. You can find further information about national funding rates in the funding rates and formula guidance.

Student numbers 2018 to 2019

  • the student numbers for each funding band as recorded in your 2018 to 2019 ILR R14 data return
  • band 5 students are all students with annual timetabled hours of 540 and over, except students aged 18+ who are not high needs
  • band 4 students are split into 2 categories
    • 4a is those students who are aged 18+, not high needs and timetabled for over 450 hours per year
    • 4b is 16 and 17 year olds and students aged 18+ with high needs who are timetabled for between 450 and 540 hours per year
  • bands 1 to 3 show all 16 to 19 ESFA funded students with timetabled hours in that band. The timetabled hours for each band is set out in the Funding rates and formula guidance
  • in addition, students in band 1 (up to 279 hours) shows the total number of band 1 full time equivalents (FTEs) for the student numbers shown
  • You can view the student level data behind each funding band in your allocation calculation toolkit (ACT). We have published guidance on how to use your ACT file

  • the following applies if you have T Level students:
    • the number of band 5 students allocated in 2020 to 2021 is adjusted to remove students funded in the T Level bands
    • student numbers for T Level bands 6 to 9 are taken from the estimated student numbers provided by institutions

National funding rate
