This newly published guidance by the DfE is for eligible providers who apply for the higher technical education (HTE) skills injection fund 3. The fund aims to grow the uptake of Higher Technical Qualifications (HTQs). It builds on the success of the:
- HTE growth fund
- HTE skills injection fund 1
- HTE skills injection fund 2
To be eligible, at the point of application, providers must:
- have received an Ofsted rating of ‘requires improvement’ or better, or be registered with the Office for Students
- have received a financial grading of ‘good’ or better
Only the lead partner in a consortium needs to meet these eligibility criteria. All providers within an IoT application are exempt from these eligibility criteria. The deadline for submitting applications under this guidance is 11.59pm on 17 June 2024. Click here for more.
