Steve Hewitt thanks for the further clarification (it had generated a payment which will be clawed back) - good to know this won't affect the QAR. Thanks everyone.

Thanks Phil Dawe / Ben James that's good to know. Martin West - apologies for any confusion, this learner's first day of learning was Module 1 (which was the start date) but as the learner hadn't completed any further learning, I had taken the learner back to the start of the programme (i.e. Module 1).  Hope this clarifies. Thanks.

Hi both, thanks for your guidance, the learner did in fact complete the new style aim so I have now corrected it and no longer have any errors.  Thanks again :-) Sue

Keli Burns apologies Keli this post was on a question I had raised so re-posted onto yours :-)   Martin West Sue It would not be my preferred method of planning an Apprenticeship programme due to extending the programme and increased OTJ hours requirement but there is nothing in the funding rules that prohibits front loading FS. Keli Even though you may not be delivering KSB for the standard in the first few months the on programme payments will start as of the start of the practical period, but this is no different to block release training which may be condensed at the start, during or at the end.

Thanks for the clarification Martin, it's good to know that it's possible to front load FSkills.  We currently have an extended programme running but wanting to look into the possibility of delivering FS first and completed, so the learner is then able to focus on the main aim.  Apologies I have another question Martin - if the FS aims were to be completed first, is it correct that the learner would still be required to complete some form of learning and evidenced for the main aim (at the start of the prog and on a monthly basis, during completion of FS) as i'm aware FS doesn't count towards the OTJ requirement? Thanks again.

Thanks Philip and Steve I thought that was the case but just wanted to double check.

Hi Martin/anyone who can provide clarity, following on from Karen's response above, I just need to ask: Q If a learner was recorded on the R14 as completed 2:3, but the outcome is then updated on the R03 to 2:1, would the record appear on the 2020/21 QAR or the 2021/22 Hybrid end of year report (due to the latest update falling into the reporting year - as per below?)  I think it still remains on the 2020/21 QAR as there hasn't been a change to the dates only the outcome, but I'd be grateful for clarity to make sure this is right. Thank you. Sue   The overall QAR, pass rate and retention rate calculations use the hybrid end year of the learning aim. The hybrid end year is the latter of the: a achievement year (for apprenticeship standards on funding model 36 only) b planned end year of the learning aim c actual end year of the learning aim d reporting year.

Thanks Martin, that's great thanks so much. I was using the calculation for the extending the programme length but missing the calculation for OTJ for some reason.  I appreciate your help and I can finally get these calculations sorted. Sue
