New On-Site Post-16 Funding Training Programme Now Available

Getting post-16 funding right has never been more important—or more complex. With increasing scrutiny on data quality, compliance, and audit readiness, many providers are looking for clearer, more practical guidance they can trust.

Pro 16 Plus is pleased to launch a new on-site Post-16 Funding Training Day, designed to give education providers a confident, working understanding of how 16–19 funding really operates in practice.

A Practical, One-Day Training for Post-16 Teams

This full-day (5–6 hour) on-site training programme is tailored to your organisation and delivered face-to-face by an experienced post-16 funding consultant.

The session is ideal for:

Senior leaders
Curriculum and post-16 managers
MIS and data teams
Finance staff
Anyone involved in planning, recording, or reporting post-16 provision
The focus throughout is on clarity, compliance, and real-world application—not jargon or theory for its own sake.

What the Training Covers

The training provides a structured walk-through of the key elements that shape post-16 funding, including:

1. Funding Rules & Formula – Background and Philosophy
Understand how the funding system developed and why the rules work the way they do.

2. Current ESFA Funding Rules
Key compliance requirements, common risks, and issues that frequently arise during audit.

3. How Your Data Drives Funding
How census and ILR data feed into funding calculations, including retention, bands, planned hours, and weightings.

4. Programmes of Study
Learning aims, qualification activity, non-qualification hours, and how to design compliant programmes.

5. The Learning Agreement
What must be included, why it matters, and how it supports audit and funding assurance.

6. T Levels – What’s Different?
How T Level funding, delivery, and data requirements differ from standard 16–19 programmes.

7. Bursary & Audit Requirements
Using bursary funding correctly and preparing confidently for audit.
