Thank you Karen Simmons, that is a shame. Let's hope we get some news shortly as time is ticking and I can only see our use of these increasing next year...

Hi Stephen, A very interesting topic about whether pensions are earnings... Could I check something please, you mention funding those who are unemployed, not on benefits but claiming a "non-state" pension. As this appears to not fall within the ESFAs definition of "unemployed" is the discretionary option added for 24/25 rules as below not applicable? not receiving any benefits, wants to be employed and you are satisfied that the identified learning is directly relevant to their employment prospects and local labour market needs. You'd could then ignore the question as to whether "non state" pensions are earnings... That is a very interesting response from the DfE though... Thanks Andrew

Hi both, Can I please just check that this is due the type of permit "only" being 'Leave to Enter' and not one of the options which exempts learners from the 3-year residency rule? discretionary leave to enter or remain exceptional leave to enter or remain indefinite leave to enter or remain Thanks

Thank you for your response Ruth Canham-James. In line with the other 'general' eligibility guidance for this offer I think we have misinterpreted the statement highlighted as you describe. The learner is employed and earning above the low wage threshold so wouldn't be fundable.

I was going to ask a very similar question. There will be a big gap in provision especially at L2 based on the list of IT qualifications having funding removed (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/free-qualifications-for-adults-with-low-digital-skills). I had hoped for a year's extension for FS ICT until FSQs come online in Aug. 23. We are looking for alternatives, possibly ICDL?
