Redundant Apprentice return past 12 weeks

Created

None

We have an apprentice that was made redundant in April and the 12 weeks to find a new employer expires today. The learner still has 12 months of the programme to go. 

We have found this apprentice a new employer yet they don't want the learner to start the Apprenticeship with them for another 2 weeks! 

Can we put this learner on a Break In Learning with a view to them returning in 2 weeks therefore not claiming any funding? Or do we have to take the hit and withdraw the learner and then start them on a reduced programme when the employer is ready?
