Further to the funding capped at old rates. If the old attempt was on programme less than 42 days it will still lock the funding at the old rate, but we found contacting the DfE (case by case) they have authorised us to claim the missing funding from the cap we should get via EAS once the learner leaves programme. Very much not ideal but better then trying to get an employer to agree the shortfall when the DfE themselves dont even consider the prior attempt as a valid start.

We use the PLR to screen earners for past instances of the same apprenticeship, we then calculate the funding used based off the standards recommended delivery length. We then offer that as an estimate of what a shortfall could be, but state that the true figure wouldn't be known until we had gone through out RPL process and submitted data to the DfE. However, we have recently had a learner where there is no prior apprenticeship on the learners PLR and yet we still have a funding cap issue. I have contacted the DfE but have yet to get a response from them.
