star this property answer text <p>The careers strategy, published in December 2017, includes proposals to improve the quality and coverage of careers advice in schools. For example, the Careers &amp; Enterprise Company and the Gatsby Foundation have developed a toolkit containing tips for schools and employers to help them support young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This is available at the following link: <a href="http://www.talentinocareers.co.uk/send-gatsby-benchmark-toolkit.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.talentinocareers.co.uk/send-gatsby-benchmark-toolkit.pdf</a>.</p><p>The Careers &amp; Enterprise Company has awarded £1.7 million to 20 organisations to support some of the most vulnerable young people to help them prepare for the world of work. This is targeted at programmes supporting disadvantaged groups including those with SEND), looked after children and care leavers and young people from gypsy, Roma and traveller communities. Projects include tailored careers support in Sussex for young people with SEND and their parents and a partnership that helps young people with autism to engage with local employers and learn about the technical routes available to them in Leeds.</p><p> </p><p>The National Careers Service provides free, up to date, impartial information, advice and guidance on careers, skills and the labour market in England. It offers face-to-face advice, a helpline with web chat, text and telephone support and a website which gives customers 24-hour access to information and advice. All services are available to adults aged 19+ and young people aged 13 to 18 can use the website and helpline. People with learning difficulties and disabilities are a priority group for face-to-face advice and the National Careers Service are very experienced in providing support to vulnerable groups. Just over a fifth (22%) of National Careers Service face-to-face customers have a disability, which is higher than in the general population (18%).[1]</p><p> </p><p>[1] Summer 2017 equality analysis of the National Careers Service.</p>

star this property answer text <p>16 to 19 funding is based on a national funding formula with a standard base rate of £4,000 for a full-time 16 or 17 year old student, and additional funding related to the characteristics of students and their learning programmes. This formula has operated since 2013/14. A different national funding formula operated before that, but the figures for the 2 are not consistent.</p><p>The average 16 to 19 funding per student for institutions in Warrington is shown below:</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Average Funding Per Student</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>£4,547</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>£4,446</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>£4,441</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016/17</p></td><td><p>£4,439</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017/18</p></td><td><p>£4,441</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018/19</p></td><td><p>£4,383</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><br> The table is based on formula funding per student derived from annual allocations covering 16 to 19 provision, to institutions based in Warrington (excluding special schools). Further funding is provided through student support, for high needs provision and from 2018/19 onwards the industry placement capacity and delivery fund.</p><p>Note that this figure includes both full- and part-time students as we do not allocate funding separately for these 2 groups. The vast majority of 16-19 year old students are full-time.</p><p> </p>

This budget is distinct from the levy and is not dependent on receipts from the levy. This budget is used to fund new apprenticeship starts for both levy and non-levy paying employers and must also cover the ongoing costs of apprentices that are already in training<em>. </em></p><p>In 2019-20 funding available for investment in apprenticeships in England is over £2.5 billion, double what was spent in 2010-11.</p><p>Currently, we expect to remain within budget in this spending review period to the end of the 2019-20 financial year. A detailed breakdown of spending for 2018-19 will be published in the Education and Skills Funding Agency Annual Report and Accounts.</p><p>The level of funding for the apprenticeship programme beyond 2019-20 will be determined by the forthcoming Spending Review.</p>
