Withdrawal of Funding from Qualifications not on Section 96

In the 16-19 Statement of Priorities 2010-11, the LSC/YPLA confirmed that funding will be withdrawn from 31 July 2010 from over 1,000 qualifications that are currently eligible for funding. 

This decision was made following consideration of the results of an impact assessment undertaken of the proposal that external qualifications for young people should only be funded if they have been approved by the Secretary of State under Section 96 of the Learning and Skills Act 2000.

We committed to publishing a list of those qualifications from which funding would be withdrawn on the LSC’s website in January 2010. In exceptional circumstances, for example where there is no alternative provision on the National Qualifications Framework or the Qualifications and Credit Framework, there will be an opportunity for awarding organisations to make a case for continued eligibility for funding until August 2011.
 
The list of qualifications and the process for making a case for continued funding eligibility for a further year will be available on the LSC website. A question and answer brief will also be made available shortly.
