It is not possible to link 16 to 19 funding specifically to qualification levels because it is calculated and allocated per student.

The attached tables set out the total number (Table 1) and proportion (Table 2) of 16 to 19 enrolments by level for the 2018/19, 2019/20 and 2020/21 academic years.

Further information about 16 to 19 funding allocations is available here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/16-to-19-education-funding-allocations#published-allocations.
