ADULT LEARNERS Varndean College isn’t just about providing education and skills to 16-19 year olds, read about one of our adult learner success stories: My name is Letitia … I started my Teaching Assistant journey back in 2018 when I joined the Level 1 ‘Working with Children’ course at Varndean College. Joining this course was really fun, so I decided to move onto the Level 2 ‘Supporting Teaching & Learning (STL) in Schools’ course where I met some lovely supportive women who supported me throughout the year, encouraging me then to join the Level 3 STL course! At times, both Level 2 and Level 3 were difficult, with Level 2 I found putting pen to paper challenging and WHAT A ‘UNIQUE’ YEAR with Level 3 it was the ICT.

  • Post-16 LIF Students Cohort Summary
    Post-16 LIF students cohort summary As part of the proposal to consult on discretional home to school/college transport, one of the options is to cease transport for post-16 students from low income families (LIF)1 who are between 16 and 19 years old. This option is mitigated by the proposal to retain up to 25% of the forecast 2015/16 budget spend of £240k to act as a targeted hardship fund. If post-16 transport as it now stands were to be ‘ceased’ for this group, this will be imposed on new starters only in September 2016. As travel support is offered in most cases for 2 years and for some students for 3 years, any changes will not be complete until the third year following implementation (2018/19). The hardship fund allocation would increase in line with demand, as only new starters will be subject to the new regime (so the fund will be the equivalent of 25% of the funding the students will have received in 2014/15, for those no longer receiving this full support from September 2016 – students awarded support prior to this time will continue to receive the same assistance). The ideal would be to use this funding to offer hardship fund support to those who most need it in order to continue their education; however there are a number of options for the nature of this support. Potential savings by Financial Year 2016/17* 2017/18 2018/19 2019/20 Option a £39 ,063 £117,147 £130,729 £130,729 Removal of funding Students from low income families - HTST budget Travel Grants (non-HTST budget) £34,109 £101,818 £112,000 £112,000 25% hardship funds £18,293 £54,741 £60,682 £60,682 Total for Option a minus hardship fund £54,879 £164,224 £182,047 £182,047 Total for Option a £73,172 £218,965 £242,729 £242,729 * adjusted for part-financial year with changes from September 2016 (68% of full year) For the 2016/17 academic year, the identified hardship fund allocation would be approximately half of the figure for the entire cohort, as roughly half of applicants for support from September 2016 will be starting new courses.

  • CHAPTER 3 Further and Higher Education
    40 / Through The Next Maze 2016 CHAPTER 3 Further and higher education Further education is education for young people usually between the ages of 16 and 19 . It includes school sixth forms, sixth form colleges and further education (FE) colleges. Higher education is provided by universities and similar institutions that offer degrees and Higher National Diplomas (HNDs). Further education is often the first option for our young people when they leave school. There can seem to be an overwhelming range of choices, but in practice many of us found they quickly narrowed down to just a few possibilities. This chapter will 40 Further and higher education / 41 examine those options in more detail, tell you about the kinds of additional support available in further and higher education and give you advice about how you and your child can make the best choice. LEAVING SCHOOL – WHAT HAPPENS? When do they leave? Officially, pupils in Year 11 stay at school until the end of June, but mainstream secondary schools often assume they’ll leave as soon as their exams are over. Some young people may want to leave as soon as they can, but others could benefit from staying on and joining a school leaving programme that helps them prepare for further education. It’s worth checking the leaving date with the school at the last annual review before your child leaves. What about your child’s Statement of SEN or EHC plan? As we explained in Chapter 1, there have been some big changes to the SEN system and this will affect what happens when your child leaves school.
