If an aim has both legal entitlements and NSF, you'd report eligible 19-23 as legal entitlements, and eligible 24+ as NSF.
If an aim has only NSF and no legal entitlements, anyone 19+ and eligible can still be funded, and you report them all as NSF.
Look at the blue box on page 34 of the 21/22 AEB rules, second bullet.

It confirms that in the blue box on page 34 of the 21/22 AEB funding rules, plus paragraph 128.1 below it.
sorry Ruth Canham-James I think I understand now
Would I be correct in saying if they are 19-23 and its funded as legal entitlement and NSF then it automatically defaults to Legal Entitlement?
Sort of. If you've coded someone as fully funded, on an aim with legal entitlements, and the student was 19-23 on their start date, and their prior attainment is recorded as below L3, and you haven't coded the LDM as 378, then they do come under your AEB budget. If all those things were true, but you recorded LDM 378, I don't know what would happen. So it's not really automatic, it's the way you code it in the ILR.

Age for NSF funding

I cant find the exact post but a few months ago another user corrected me regarding the age range for learners funded under NSF. I thought it was only for 24+ but she said it was allowed from 19+
I just discussed with a colleague who confirmed we have to enrol under legal entitlement if they are 19-23 and when we checked our R06 occupancy report I can see that's how 19-23 years are being recorded.
Are we correct?
