16-18 plans for 2010/11 • No rate increase • In-year adjustments between providers • Challenge expensive colleges/programmes • Roll-out of Functional Skills (LR rates remain unlisted for colleges) • 14-19 Qualification Strategy (incl. QCF)

Bedtime reading for 14-19 Advisers YPLA funding guidance due end of May
Some big post-election questions • Will the age of participation be raised to 18? • Could the school leaving age be lowered to 14? • Will there be a 14+ national funding regime or will local authorities want their own methods? • Will the 14-19 curriculum pathways survive? • In what shape would MoG survive? • A Liberal Democrat Education Minister? (still possible as at 21.16 on 10/05/10)
