EFA’s Peter Lauener: the impact of new funding for 16-19 year olds

FE News chats with Peter Lauener, chief executive of the Education Funding Agency (EFA), about  changes to 16-19 year old funding programmes.

Peter explains that, following on from the Wolf review, the funding of 16-19 year olds is changing from a focus on qualifications to students. This is now being rolled out by the EFA, and the allocations have also been issued for the coming academic year (2013/14) to schools, colleges and providers.
