Submit your year-end funding claim by 5pm on Thursday 13 June 2024. The claim form will be available on submit learner data. ESFA has updated the funding claims user guide to help you complete the form. You will need to submit a claim if you receive funds through these grant-funded contracts:
- ESFA funded adult education budget (AEB) – adult skills, community learning, 19 to 24 traineeships and level 3 free courses for jobs offer
- advanced learner loans bursary (ALLB)
The 16 to 19 delivery section of the funding claim only needs to be signed off for your final funding claims. For 16 to 19 delivery, you do not need to take any action for mid-year or year-end funding claims. You must not enter any adjustments relating to the earnings boost in your funding claim, ESFA will do this after you have submitted the claim. Your indicative reconciliation statement (for grant-funded providers) will include the earnings boost that we have calculated. ESFA will contact all providers with the details behind the calculations as they did last year. ESFA will review claims to ensure they are substantiated by the data you have submitted in your individualised learner record (ILR). Once you have submitted your year-end funding claim on submit learner data, you will also be able to view it on manage your education and skills funding.
