answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2019 answer text <p>In March 2019, the government announced its decision not to extend maintenance loans to part-time distance learners in the 2019-20 academic year. This was on the grounds that the demand for a loan product aimed at part-time distance learners is unlikely to be high enough to make the introduction of such a loan economically viable.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore question first answered 22/07/2019 15:55:07 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/04/2019 answer text <p>We are pleased that employers are choosing to move to our new, higher quality apprenticeship offer to make a sustainable investment in the skills that they need to grow. Employers are designing higher level apprenticeships that take longer and require more off-the-job training and, while this is something to be welcomed, we are conscious of the challenges it presents.</p><p> </p><p>In 2019-20, funding available for investment in apprenticeships in England will be over £2.5 billion, this is double what was spent in 2010-11. The apprenticeship budget is set in advance by Her Majesty’s Treasury for the current spending review period. Currently, we expect to be within budget in the 2018-19 and 2019-20 financial years. We continue to monitor the trend of increasing spending on apprenticeships and to make use of our engagement with employers in addition to all available data from the programme to inform forecasts of demand and future costs.</p><p> </p><p>The level of funding for the programme beyond 2020 will be determined by the forthcoming Spending Review announced by my right hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in his Spring Statement.</p><p><em><br> </em></p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 08/04/2019 10:14:05 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton previous answer version 112154 answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton
