From July 2022 the ESFA will remove post-16 funding from Level 2 Functional Skills Qualifications in ICT.
Phased removal of post-16 funding for Digital and ICT qualifications, Entry to Level 2. from July 2021 to July 2023
Due to the introduction of reformed qualifications, the ESFA are phasing the removal of funding from existing digital and ICT qualifications. The removal of funding began in July 2021 and will be completed by July 2023.
Funding will be removed for learners on the following ESFA funded offers:
- 16 to 19 study programmes
- ESFA funded adult education budget (AEB), including local flexibility
- European Social Fund (ESF)
This will not affect funding approval where the qualifications are taken by students aged 14 to 16 (at Key Stage 4), as part of a traineeship, or as part of an apprenticeship. The qualifications will remain available in these offers.
