  16. Contracting 2009/10 Train to Gain • Tony Belmega • Skills Development Director • Train to Gain

  17. Will cover • Funding • Allocations • Contracting • Conclusions

  18. Funding • Grant Letter: £797m - £925m (09/10 FY) • Exceptional demand in 08/09 AY • Impact on 09/10 FY • High spend April 2009-July 2009 • Less available for August 2009-March 2010 • Reduces budget for 09/10 AY (compared to 08/09 AY)

  19. Allocations • Carry in costs • Learners on the programme at 30th April, profiled starts to May • Balance allocated based on achievement rates and progress towards TQS • Moderated by area teams/regional Train to Gain team for outliers

  20. Contracting (1) • Old world: cash followed volumes • New world: volumes follow cash • No over contracting • No provider to exceed their MCV without prior written agreement • Funding rates: no 3% premium, increase is 1.5%

  21. Contracting (2) • Virement between ALR and ER budgets possible • Pressure point August 2009-March 2010 • “Insufficient funding to meet the high level of demand from employers and learners” • Need to prioritise learners securing employment through response to redundancy and LTU 6 month plus programme • New contracts to allow LSC to increase or decrease MCV’s in light of actual performance

  22. Contracting (3) • Performance measured against financial profiles in Summary Statement of Activity (SSOA) • Starts need to be profiled in line with funding available • SSOA will form part of the contract • MCV will show one amount but: • A sub budget for August 2009-March 2010 • A sub budget for April 2010-July 2010 • We must plan to live within both

  23. Conclusions • Less funding available in 2009/10 • Pressure point August 2009-March 2010 • Cannot exceed overall regional budget • Not expecting under spends from other regions • Challenging year ahead

  24. Apprenticeships Targets and Allocations Karen Woodward – Regional Director 25

  25. National Apprenticeship Service National Picture 2008/9 • Targets • Overall starts 231,900 (forecast YE 109% - 253,400) • 118,400 framework completions (forecast YE 102.6% - 121,500) • Overall completion rate 65% (forecast YE 68.1%) • Budgets as at end of March • 16 -18 under spent by 1.7% (£7.2m) • 19-24 under spent by 9.6% (17.6M) • 25+ overspent by 32.7% (£20.6m)

  26. National Apprenticeship Service National Picture • Month on month decline in starts for all age ranges • 16 -18 from March to April - 25% drop in starts • 19 -24 from March to April - 18.8% drop in starts • 25+ from March to April – 26.8% drop in starts • Overall still ahead of profile (21,600) BUT • 25+ 126.5% ahead (28,900) • 19-24 close to profile (400 behind) • 16 -18 behind by 7.7% (6,900)

  27. National Apprenticeship Service National Picture 2008/9 • Provisional In Year success rates: • Level 2 67.8% • Level 3 68.7% • 16 -18 66.9% • 19 -24 68.8% • 25+ 73.8%

  28. Targets 16 -18 Starts: 9,909 - performance to date 6825 (69% of target) Framework completions 5689 – performance to date 2980 (52%) 19+ starts: 10,149 - performance to date 7821 (77% of target) Framework completions: 6,389 – performance to date 2782 (43%) National Apprenticeship Service 2008/09 EM targets and performance to date (end of May) 29

  29. Budgets 16 -18 under spent by £1.7 million (after transfer to E2E); 19 -24 potential budget availability £1.9 million 25+ over spent by £6k Looking to see if we need to offer a balancing factor for TtG National Apprenticeship Service 2008/09 EM targets and performance to date (end of May) 30

  30. National target circa 258,000 starts of which 18,000 will be public sector split by age range as follows as predicted starts of: 16 -18 133,500 starts (10,500 public sector) – budget £715,690,342; 19-24 99,000 starts (3,900 public sector) – budget £279,004,990; 25+ 25,403 starts (3,600 public sector) – budget £119,667,000 National Apprenticeship Service Targets and budgets 2009/10 31

  31. Targets The 16-18 target is a 7.97% increase on 2008/09. The 19+ target is a 21% reduction on 2008/09 National Apprenticeship Service EM Targets and budgets 2009/10 32

  32. v National Apprenticeship Service Key messages and priorities • 16 -18 top priority – looking for major growth in 16 -18 starts – including public sector - a further £4.5 million available for growth in the region • 19 -24 is a priority – it IS the policy priority for this age group (not TtG – subject to employer choice); • 25+ - managing down demand to get back in budget – key priorities for 25+ starts are Public Sector – returners to the labour market. • Commitment to cover “carry in” for 25+ learners first and foremost – then new recruitment – we still have some unallocated funds to discuss with providers recruitment in our priority groups ONLY; 33

  33. v National Apprenticeship Service Key messages and priorities • Contracts will reflect age, FY and AY cash allocation – managing cash is KING • The MCV includes all the key payments – achievement bonus; ALS. There is no extra funding. • Negotiation with NAS/LSC is critical for determining the proportions of delivery in L2/3, the carry in, the average length of stay and the sector of delivery 34

  34. National Apprenticeship Service Challenges and key issues • Managing Performance • 1. Managing 19+ performance within budget: • We overspent our FY budget supported by TtG under spend. TtG now over performing too! • National policy – manage performance within budget – no capacity to fund over performance. • 2. Increasing 16-18 performance during the recession: • Budget under spend increasing. • Under delivery of participation and completions target. • Using unspent funds to support existing apprentices to complete, offer support to employers to increase placements and build provider capacity. • Improve progression into 16-18 Apprenticeships: • From FLT in colleges and from e2e for full FLT roll out in 2010/11 35
