Youth Services
Asked by: Gareth Snell (Labour (Co-op) - Stoke-on-Trent Central)
Tuesday 4th March 2025

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, with reference to her Department's Statutory guidance for local authorities’ youth provision, published on 27 September 2023, what progress local authorities have made on conducting Needs assessments in their area; and whether her Department has plans to publish he results of what local authorities deliver.

Answered by Stephanie Peacock - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport)

Local Authorities have a statutory duty to secure, so far as is reasonably practicable, sufficient provision of educational and recreational leisure-time activities for young people in their area. Although there is no legal requirement for local authorities to publish their plans, the guidance encourages local authorities to publish their assessment of local needs for youth services as well as the rationale for their actions and decisions. The department does not hold this information centrally and has no plans for a publication on needs assessments

Friday 7th March 2025

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what steps her Department is taking to support local authorities that have been issued a section 114 notice with the provision of youth work.

T-levels
Asked by: Gareth Snell (Labour (Co-op) - Stoke-on-Trent Central)
Wednesday 5th March 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many students are studying an applied general qualification of 720 guided learning hours or more in a T level route.

Answered by Janet Daby - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

The government has affirmed its commitment to T Levels as a high quality qualification and that these should be the qualifications of choice for 16 to 19-year-olds wishing to study large qualifications.

In the 2022/23 academic year there were 63,840 16 to 19-year-olds, enrolled on a study programme taking an Applied General Qualification over 720 guided learning hours, which appear on performance tables in the same sector subject areas as a T Level. The data is the total number of enrolled students on those qualifications, so will include students on the multiple years of study.

Students deserve high quality qualifications that meet their needs, and the department must continue to develop and improve qualifications so that they support the government’s key missions of spreading opportunity and supporting economic growth. Through our work on the qualifications reform rapid review and the Curriculum and Assessment Review, we will ensure a curriculum that meets the needs of students and employers, which is backed up by high quality qualifications that deliver strong outcomes.

Students: Finance
Asked by: Gareth Snell (Labour (Co-op) - Stoke-on-Trent Central)
Wednesday 5th March 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the average programme funding is for 16 to 19 year olds studying T levels and other Level 3 qualifications.

Answered by Janet Daby - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

The Autumn Budget 2024 provided an additional £300 million revenue funding for further education (FE) for the 2025/26 financial year to ensure young people are developing the skills this country needs.

The department uses the 16 to 19 funding formula to calculate an allocation of funding to each institution, each academic year. The starting point for these allocations are the funding rates, which depend on the size of students’ study programmes or T Levels. The rates for 2024/25 can be accessed at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/16-to-19-funding-information-for-2024-to-2025#national-funding-rate-for-2024-to-2025. The other elements of the funding formula are then applied, which include a number of adjustments, including for higher cost programmes. Further detail on how the funding formula works can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/16-to-19-funding-how-it-works#funding-formula.

The average total programme funding per 16 to 19 student is £6,219 in the 2024/25 academic year, according to published allocations.

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether she plans to include provisions in the English Devolution Bill on improving the provision of support to low-income households to access public services.
