<p>Allocations for students studying at post-16 institutions are not available separately
for students aged 16 and 17, although data on allocations and student numbers are
available for 16 to 19 year olds as set out in published allocations data. The following
allocations show the average funding per student in England, Cornwall and North Cornwall
for the last five academic years.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td
colspan="6"><p><strong>Average funding per student</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>
</p></td><td><p><strong>2013/14</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2014/15</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2015/16</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2016/17</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2017/18</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>England</p></td><td><p>£4,685</p></td><td><p>£4,586</p></td><td><p>£4,639</p></td><td><p>£4,625</p></td><td><p>£4,625</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Cornwall</p></td><td><p>£4,389</p></td><td><p>£4,355</p></td><td><p>£4,480</p></td><td><p>£4,541</p></td><td><p>£4,554</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>North
Cornwall</p></td><td><p>£4,157</p></td><td><p>£4,140</p></td><td><p>£4,281</p></td><td><p>£4,258</p></td><td><p>£4,267</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>The
above figures exclude high needs funding but include both full and part-time students,
and allocations for the 16 to 19 bursary fund and free meals funding.</p><p>Institutions
in Cornwall and North Cornwall are funded through the same national funding formula
as the rest of England and have received the same £4,000 base rate of funding for
full time 16 and 17 year olds throughout the period. Average funding per student in
Cornwall and North Cornwall is lower due to other factors in the 16 to 19 funding
formula, for example, institutions in Cornwall do not attract an area cost uplift
for higher delivery costs like those in London and South East England.</p>
