We've used it due to an issue with the monthly payment reports from 17/18. Due to untimely recording of the small employer incentive at our end, the monthly payment report didn't wipe off any co-investments due from the employer for the dates preceding the point we included it in an ILR submission. Took months initially to try and get the ESFA to understand our issue and get the permission, but seems a lot better recently - got the permission for one in this scenario in about 10 working days.

If the learner found there own job, you cannot record this as work experience on the ILR. If they are only doing GCSE Maths & English, depending on how many planned hours you deliver those subjects in, they may fall below the COF threshold of 150 hours, so become irrelevant in that sense. Why are you thinking that they won't fulfil the COF without the work experience aim?

We record 16-19 with a long term absence as BIL's just to keep track of them. We don't want to withdraw them on our MIS system as harder to track, and if we left them as continuing, someone would want to withdraw them if they haven't been attending. This is only where they are known to be coming back, and if we subsequently find out they don't come back we just update the enrolment to a withdrawal. If everything is corrected by R14 it won't effect anything, or never has for us.

I think you've misinterpreted the 24+ bit. Its sort of saying that from now on 24+ students can access full funding via this new pot but it isn't ringfenced to 24+ student only as per 128.1: [image] You are doing yourself out of funding if you are not claiming Adult Skills offer for 19-23's.

If someone enrolled on say 02/09/21 with a planned start date of 06/09/21, but didn't turn up until 14/09/2021 because they were ill for the first week, we would count all the hours as that was the plan and the rest of the cohort started on time.

Where in the guidance does it say you have to fund 19-23's via AEB? NSF is for learners aged 19+ (para 128.1)

So if you had an apprentice who went on a BIL in 20/21 and then returned, you have to report both the BIL and the continuing enrolments in 21/22 and beyond until they complete/withdraw. If you have payment records recorded on the 2021 BIL, then they have to be rolled over into 2122 (on the BIL enrolment) as the ILR will not be able to see payments made in previous years otherwise. Thats what we've found anyway. By not rolling over previous BIL with payment records attached, it prevented the completion payment from being released.

You don't have to use the template they publish, you can make up your own and ensure it includes all the required elements as per the funding rules.

Thanks Joan - least i know its not just me! Thanks for the info about the table - do we know when the next release is out? I'd managed to do something for the rollovers, annoyingly it felt very messy. I'll just have to live with the errors on new enrolments until we get access to the tables.
