AEB - Maths

If a learner has a grade E at GCSE but initial assessment/diagnostic shows them working at entry 3, can we enrol onto level 1 maths and claim funding?

I'd say yes, given it's a letter not a number it must be quite an old GCSE and I'd be quite happy for an initial assessment to trump an old grade.

Thank you - we've been informed by the learner that they have attempted the level 1 maths with another provider through AEB, would we be unable to claim, even though they didn't achieve?

Steve Hewitt

Oh, yes, that's absolutely fine in any situation. Doesn't "count" unless they've achieved (might have a quick check on their PLR to make sure it doesn't say achieved on there though (he says through bitter experience...)).

Chloe Hemmingsley

That's great, thank you! We had one appear on our FRMs recently (they hadn't achieved) and it caused panic!

Steve Hewitt

Hmmm, I didn't think they would turn up on the FRM if they hadn't achieved... But I've not had any AEB in the day job this year so not been paying closest attention!
