16-19 Allocations Implications for London Yolande Burgess, Strategy Director
Policy changes • Entitlement (enrichment activities) cut by 84 funded hours: average 13% reduction in funding per learner • All institutions on the same national rate of £2,920: downward convergence for schools • Additional £150m for disadvantage: 16% of pot to London cushioned the blow • And the other reductions • 25% reduction in Teachers Pay Grant • Removal of additional payments for teachers’ pensions
Policy changes and funding • Allocations • £6million reduction • Teachers Pay Grant • £3million reduction • Pensions • £9.9million loss
Effect of the changes • Proportion of institutions receiving transitional protection: • 92% of schools • 90% of academies • 84% of colleges (general and sixth form) • Significant numbers of institutions protected in 2011/12 – future?
Protection ends 2014/15 Incrementally reducing transitional protection Funding per learner
Implications for learners • Reduction of 3% per learner for most institutions • Reduced curriculum opportunities due to cut in enrichment funding • Larger groups to manage costs savings • Reduced student contact time • Reduction in student support - impact of loss of Education Maintenance Allowance • Potential impact on achievement
Known's and unknowns • Academy converters: More schools becoming academies – the market place changes • All change in schools: Curriculum, targets, inspections, governance, responsibilities • Wolf and the curriculum: English and maths, Apprenticeships, work experience, infrastructure • Wolf and funding: A move from per qualification funding to per pupil funding
Known's and unknowns • Pressure on adult funding: College infrastructure vulnerable – risk averse in a time when we need creativity • Post-16 funding formula review: The policy focus next year could shift funding across regions and between types of institutions • National funding formula for schools: The appetite for a single formula 4 to19? • Simplification: Push for further simplification – risk is that simplicity ends up as simplistic
