From the ILR Specification notes:
This field should be completed with the proportion of this learning aim that is still to be delivered where the learner is not undertaking the full scope of the learning aim because of prior learning.
If you are delivering all of the learning for this aim and no adjustment to funding is required, this field must not be returned.

Hi - I came here first as I needed an answer before the R04 (I didn't adjust the proportion of funding for the learners concerned) but just thought I'd share the response I've now received from the ESFA helpdesk which has now thrown me into confusion again - saying I will need to change the proportion of funding field (although I guess I can argue that the learner needs all the learning again)
"Please see following response from the AEB policy team:
As the learner did not achieve the learning aim last year, they are able to retake it. However, as set out in paragraph 69.1 of the AEB funding rules, you will need to “reduce the funding amount claimed for the qualification aim by the percentage of learning the learner does not need”.
You should use the ‘funding adjustment for prior learning’ field to show the proportion of learning still to be delivered, and this calculation is at your discretion. However, you must retain evidence of the calculation for audit.
If you amend this field, you will still receive the achievement payment if the learner achieves the learning aim."

Repeating aims
Created
Hi - Where a learner has attempted and failed a learning aim last year and has returned to repeat all of the learning, do I need to amend the "Proportion of Funding Remaining" field to 0? Or because the learner is repeating the whole year, can we still claim funding as the learner didn't achieve anything? (This isn't a Maths or English qual up to Level 2 so doesn't fall under Rule 71). If I do need to amend the Funding Proportion field, will the Achievement Payment still be paid if the learner does achieve this year? Thanks!
