How the Apprenticeship Levy will Affect Schools, Colleges, and Training Provi...The Pathway Group
Information about the benefits of apprenticeships, the governments ambitious apprenticeship reforms, changes to the way in which apprenticeships are paid for and how this will affect schools, colleges, and training providers.
The document discusses the upcoming UK Apprenticeship Levy. It explains that from April 2017, employers with a paybill over £3 million will be charged 0.5% of their paybill to fund apprenticeship training. The levy will be collected through monthly real-time payroll taxes. Employers can use funds in their levy account to purchase approved apprenticeship programs. The document provides an example of how the levy might impact a company with 1,000 UK employees and a £20 million paybill. It estimates this company would have £808,500 in its annual levy account to spend on apprenticeship training.

The document discusses the upcoming UK apprenticeship levy that will require employers with a yearly paybill of over £3 million to pay 0.5% of their total paybill into an apprenticeship fund. It explains that the fund can be used to purchase apprenticeship training programs. It provides an example of how much a large company with £200 million in payroll and 10,000 employees would pay into the fund and how many apprentices that money could support based on average training costs. It recommends that employers begin strategic planning to take advantage of the fund and consider converting existing training programs into eligible apprenticeships.
The document summarizes new apprenticeship funding rules in England beginning in May 2017, including:
- The apprenticeship levy applied to large employers at a rate of 0.5% of payroll to fund apprenticeship training.
- Employers pay a levy to HMRC which is available in a digital account to spend on training. The government provides a 10% top-up.
- Training costs are banded and the government funds 90% of costs for non-levy paying employers up to the band limit.
- Additional support is provided for 16-18 year olds, those from disadvantaged backgrounds, and small employers.

THE APPRENTICESHIP LEVY: A Guide for Employers & SME'sThe Pathway Group
Ammar struggled after leaving school but found success through an apprenticeship. He completed a customer service apprenticeship which helped him develop skills and confidence. This led to paid work in pharmaceuticals and higher education in pharmacy. The UK government is introducing an apprenticeship levy in April 2017 requiring large employers to contribute 0.5% of their annual payroll. This will fund the goal of 3 million apprenticeship starts by 2020. The levy applies to employers with over £3 million payroll annually and provides incentives for small businesses.

The document discusses upcoming changes to apprenticeship funding and delivery in the UK, including:
1) Large employers will pay a 0.5% payroll tax to fund apprenticeships, which they can use to pay for training and assessment. Small employers will continue to access government funding.
2) Apprenticeship frameworks will be replaced by new standards focused on specific job roles rather than sectors. Training providers will have a reduced role in assessment.
3) Employers will have more control over apprenticeship content and delivery under the new system compared to the current model, where providers control funding and delivery.
The document discusses upcoming changes to apprenticeships in the UK, including replacing frameworks with standards, implementing an apprenticeship levy for large employers, and increasing employer control over apprenticeship content and delivery. It provides details on the apprenticeship levy, such as it being set at 0.5% of an employer's paybill and having a £15,000 allowance.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. What is the apprenticeship levy and who pays it?
• Starts on 6 April 2017, at a rate of
0.5% of pay bill, paid through PAYE
• Applies to all UK employers in all
sectors
• £15,000 allowance is not a cash

Accessing levy funds to spend on training
• Levy funds will be available through a new digital service on
gov.uk
• First funds appear in account in late May 2017
If 100% of pay bill is in England 100% of levy payment in digital
account
If 80% of pay bill is in England 80% of levy payment in digital
account
How funds in the account will be calculated
5. What about non levy payers? Co-Investment
There are two types of employers who will benefit from government support towards the cost of
their apprenticeships training:
1. Employers who haven’t paid the levy and want to purchase apprenticeship training from a
provider
2. A levy-paying employer who with insufficient funds in their digital account to pay for the
cost of training and assessment they want to purchase
• The government will pay 90% of the costs of training and assessment.
• The employer will be responsible for paying 10% of the costs.
Government 90%
Employer 10%
6. Purchasing training – both groups
New funding system comes into effect on 1 May 2017
• Apprenticeships started before 1 May will be funded through to completion according to the
existing rules
Levied employers buying training from May 2017
• Can commit to apprenticeship starts from the beginning of May
• Funds will automatically leave the digital account on a monthly basis
• The cost will be spread over the lifetime of the apprenticeship
• The government will hold back 20% of the total cost, to be paid
Non-levied employers buying training from May 2017
• Continue to make payments direct to providers
• Move onto the digital system at a later date
7. Final funding policy
Expiry of digital funds after 24 months – helping employers to prepare for
the new system and to adapt training programmes
Support for 16-18 year old apprentices - £1000 payment to employers and
training providers
plus extra government funding to provide a transitional 20% uplift for
providers training 16-18 year olds on a framework. Also applies to 19-24
year olds formerly in care or have a Education and Health Care plan
Retain a simplified version of current system for one year to support those
from disadvantaged areas whilst review best way to support disadvantaged
groups
8. Funding rules
Cross-border funding
Applying a single test for funding through the
English system: based on whether the
apprentice’s main place of employment is
England.
‘Workplace’ is where the apprentice is expected
to spend the majority of their time during their
apprenticeship.
Prior qualifications
Now and in the future, you can train any
individual to undertake an apprenticeship
at a higher level than a qualification they
already hold.
From May 2017, an individual can be
funded to undertake an apprenticeship at
the same or lower level to acquire
substantive new skills
Transferring funding
During 2018 we will introduce means for
employers to transfer up to 10% of the levy
funds to another employer with a digital account,
or to an ATA.
New employer steering group to design this
system so that it meets their needs
9. Contracts
Once a provider has been selected by an employer to
deliver training to their apprentices, they need to
negotiate costs and ensure contracts are in place so
that the funding can flow.
The costs for any end point assessment will be
included in the total price for the apprenticeship
agreed with the employer. Providers will be required
to pass this agreed amount on to the assessment
organisation selected by the employer.
