A DfE spokesperson said:

“Now more than ever, it is vital more adults have the opportunity to learn and develop the digital skills they need to thrive in everyday life and work.

“That’s why we are introducing a new generation of essential digital skills qualifications, and removing approval for funding for existing ICT qualifications, which are based on out-of-date standards that do not reflect the digital world we live in.

“This action will simplify the digital skills landscape for learners and make sure only those developed against our new, rigorous, employer-supported national standards are funded.”
