allocations for 2017/18 have not yet been published. Funding for 16 to 19-year-old
education includes Total Programme Funding and High Needs funding in the allocations
tables.</p><p> </p><p>As EFA accounts are published by financial year, and funding
allocations are made by academic year, the two sets of figures are not directly comparable.</p><p>
