Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will meet the Education Funding Agency to discuss the number of course places her Department will fund in the coming year.
The allocations for the education of 16 to 19-year-olds in 2015/16 were announced by the end of March. The allocations remain in place and we are not planning to change them.
The Secretary of State’s policy officials frequently meet with the Education Funding Agency to discuss matters as they arise.
