Question to the Department for Education:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Agnew of Oulton on 25 July (HL9666), what percentage of contracts for the training of apprentices, by number and by value, has been awarded by the Education and Skills Funding Agency to organisations which subcontract such training.

The Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) is in the process of collating subcontractor data from providers awarded apprenticeship contracts. The ESFA will publish in due course an updated list of subcontractors on the GOV.UK website that are contracted to deliver over £100,000 of adult education and training per year by the providers it funds.
