Our initial assessment is that, overall, there would be limited direct financial or economic impact on the FE sector of a no deal exit. However, the department will continue to keep this under review, alongside our normal monitoring of the financial health of the college sector.<\/p>

International students make a significant contribution to the UK, beyond any tax payments they make. They enhance our educational institutions; they enrich the experience of domestic students; and they contribute to the £20 billion the education sector generates through education exports and transnational activity each year. The government recently published an International Education Strategy with the aim of increasing the number of international students studying in the UK to 600,000, or by more than 30%, by 2030.<\/p>"}

The teachers\u2019 pay grant is to support schools with the cost of the award. Centrally employed teachers make up less than 1% of all classroom teachers, and we anticipate that local authorities will cover the additional increase from existing budgets. While we are distributing the grant on a per pupil formula, we do not have an equivalent basis on which to provide funding to local authorities, given the variability in approach to centrally employing teachers between different authorities. Many centrally employed teachers are employed by music education hubs. We recently announced a £1.33 million increase in funding for music education hubs for 2018/19 and 2019/20 to help with a range of pressures including pay.<\/p>
Since November, we have discussed this further with a range of stakeholders, including the Local Government Association, other representatives from local authorities and representatives from teacher unions.<\/p>"}

We agree with the All-Party Parliamentary Group\u2019s report that all pupils should receive a high quality music education, at least up to age 14. That is why the subject is compulsory in the national curriculum and why this government is providing funding of over £300 million for music education hubs between 2016 and 2020. A report published last year by Birmingham City University (attached) showed that in 2016/17 the hubs taught more than 700,000 children to play a musical instrument with their class.<\/p>
<\/p>
The national curriculum does not apply in academies, but all state-funded schools have to provide a broad and balanced curriculum. We welcome Ofsted\u2019s consultation on a revised education inspection framework which emphasises the importance of a broad and rigorous curriculum<\/p>
<\/p>
We are also developing a model music curriculum, which will be made freely available to schools and have announced plans to refresh the National Plan for Music Education.<\/p>
<\/p>
There is no evidence that the introduction of English Baccalaureate (EBacc) is responsible for the reductions in entries to music at GCSE. Since 2009/10, the percentage of the GCSE cohort choosing to take music has fluctuated, but remained broadly stable at between 6 and 7%. The EBacc has been designed to be limited in size in order to allow students to continue to study additional subjects that reflect their individual interests and strengths, including arts subjects. We have no plans to add a sixth pillar.<\/p>

Alternative providers (AP) which are full-time and meet the criteria for registration as an independent school are already regulated under the 2008 act. The parallel provisions which would enable regulation of part-time independent settings have not been commenced.<\/p>
The department is aware that local authorities, schools and AP commission out-of-school AP settings for a variety of reasons, including to equip children with vocational skills working with specialists or to offer work placements<\/p>
Our statutory guidance is clear that in all cases the local authority or school, acting as the commissioner of AP, should assure itself that the provision is delivered by high quality staff with suitable training, experience and safeguarding checks. Ofsted inspectors are expected to consider the progress of pupils who attend off-site provision, when conducting school and college inspections.<\/p>
In March 2018, the department published guidance, attached, setting out how the government, Ofsted and local authorities can work collaboratively to help ensure unregistered out of school settings are safe and providing a suitable education.<\/p>"}
