Question for Department for Education

UIN 5408, tabled on 17 July 2017

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the Answer of 21 June 2017 to Question 212, for what reasons the Answer does not say how much was paid to West Anglia College in 2015-16 for the Worksop Town FC 16 to 19-year-old football academy; and how much was paid.

21 July 2017

The education provision delivered at Worksop Town academy was delivered via a sub-contracting relationship with the College of West Anglia and under such arrangements, the students were enrolled by, and were the responsibility of, the college.

16 to 19 college funding is calculated using a funding formula based on lagged student numbers, so there is no specific breakdown of how that funding relates to individual students or provision.
