A simplified FE and skills funding system and methodology

TUC submission to the government consultation

The TUC welcomes the opportunity to comment on the government's consultation on making the FE and skills funding system for post-19 learners simpler and more effective. It should be noted that the TUC submission to the Skills for Sustainable Growth consultation contains a great deal more detail on a wide range of policy areas that are inextricably linked to the proposals in this consultation to deliver an effective and equitable funding system. In particular, the TUC is of the view that the policy issues highlighted below are of paramount importance and that any resulting reforms to the funding system should be assessed against their capacity for delivering on these policy priorities.
