answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2017 answer text <p>We have protected the base rate of funding at £4,000 per student for all types of providers until 2020 to ensure that happens. Extra funding is provided where needed, for example, for students on large academic programmes and for providers to attract, support and retain disadvantaged 16 to 19-year olds. In addition, my Rt hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, announced in the Spring Budget a significant investment in technical education for 16-19 year olds, rising to an additional £500 million a year.</p><p>The first £74 million of this investment will be allocated to help institutions build their capacity for the improved work placements that will form part of new T level programmes, from April 2018 to July 2019.</p><p> </p><p>Funding and resourcing beyond 2020 will be considered and agreed as part of the Government’s next spending review.</p><p> </p><p>The post-16 system is performing well and a record proportion of 16 to 18-year olds are now participating in education or apprenticeships. The results in the first of the reformed A levels were released in August this year, with students continuing to achieve effectively against the high standards of the qualification and demonstrating their readiness for the demands of higher education. Overall, A level results this year were stable compared to last year.</p><p> </p><p>A record number of 18-year olds applied to Higher Education this year and the entry rate for English 18-year olds from disadvantaged backgrounds is at a record high.</p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 16/10/2017 10:50:37 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton
