Get the horrible feeling that you may be the first to do this...
Receiving funding in Y2 when they're out and nothing in Y3 when they're in sounds like a *massive* fudge as well for a whole bunch of audit reasons, although, if you're tracking the placement hours (kind of like a reverse apprenticeship???), that would seem pretty solid evidence?

T Level - Industry Placement in the 2nd Year
Created
Hi, I am looking for some advice here please.
Our Agriculture T Level has a year out placement in the 2nd year.
Both internal auditors and awarding bodies are saying we cannot offer a 3 year T Level despite the guidance shown below.
How T Level funding is different from the way we fund 16 to 19 study programmes
We have built on the existing arrangements to distribute T Level funding for 16 to 19 year olds, including:
· 4 additional funding bands to accommodate the different sizes of T Levels
· funding based on the hours above the usual full-time rate for study programmes spread over 2 years because T Levels are usually 2-year programmes – where institutions deliver T Levels over 3 years to ensure that students undertake a 12 months’ long industry placement, we will only fund the T Level for the first 2 years of the programme
How are providers remaining audit compliant and providing evidence for that placement year claim in the ILR for the 2nd year. I would be grateful if anyone currently running a placement year also could advise on this. Many thanks,
