It means that for a a learner who already has the required grade it meets the COF but it cannot be delivered in order to satisfy the COF requirements. Kind regards, Anna

Hi Abigail You would not add the placement hours as per the following guidance. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/t-level-funding/record-your-t-level-data-correctly#:~:text=The%20hours%20recorded%20for%20a%20T%20Level%20must%20reflect%20the,a%20learning%20aim%20as%20appropriate. T Level planned hours must include: the technical qualification specialist content non-qualification activity (EEP) T Level planned hours must not include: maths and English delivery (you do not need to record maths and English delivery hours for a T Level student) industry and work placements (record hours for industry placements in the work placement entity and not in the planned hours) other qualifications that are not part of the T Level     However, for Early Years Educator T Level only there is the following guidance. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/t-level-funding/t-levels-funding-guide-for-2023-to-2024#for-education-and-early-years For education and early years On top of this, we expect that you should deliver 100 additional hours as part of the necessary observation on the industry placement as set out in the Education and Early Years Technical Qualification specification. These 100 hours, for this T Level only, should be counted and recorded as planned hours. This means that the early years occupational specialism for the Education and Early Years T Level is funded at band 6. The following occupational specialisms are also funded at band 6 but are below the minimum hours of 1180. Therefore, you will need to ensure you deliver the minimum hours by either adding additional qualification hours and/or EEP: assisting teaching and supporting mentoring students in education settings These 100 hours still won't get you to 1180 but will help close the gap. There has been the following ESFA Communities post in the past that I think will help.   https://esfahelp.education.gov.uk/hc/en-gb/community/posts/5296250427666-T-level-and-Placement-Hours Kind regards, Anna

The following was part of the AOC funding and finance briefing last week. Ukraine issues Three points to note: The government opened registrations for a Ukraine humanitarian sponsorship scheme on Monday and has already had more than 100,000 expressions of interest. mainly from individuals. Individual sponsors are expected to provide housing for a minimum of 6 months. The government will pay a monthly thank-you payment of £350 a month and will carry some checks but will leave it to but will stand back from organising the accomodation or the sponsorship. Refugees will get visas of up to 3 years which will allow them to work and access benefits (including state funded education). The government has not yet published the arrangements for organisational sponsors but hopes to encourage business, charity and university involvement. It is possible that a few colleges with spare residential accomodation or links to host families could make something of this scheme. DfE will be updating its funding rules to take account of these new Ukranian visas. The government has sanctioned a number of individuals with connections to the Russian government and has secured passage for an Economic Crime Bill that will speed up the process. Colleges are not really in this sort of market but now might be a good time to check your money laundering compliance policy
