Ahead of the biggest changes to adult education funding rates and rules in England in more than a decade, NATECLA and Ascentis are co-hosting a FREE webinar with education funding policy expert Beej Kaczmarczyk.

• New ESOL funding rates and rules
• Devolution and what this means for your delivery
• Implications of GLH driven formula
• Tailored Learning
• Mythbusting.

If you’re an ESOL manager or co-ordinator based in England, this is your chance to explore in detail how the funding changes for 2024-25 will affect your delivery, how to prepare and how to make the most of new the funding options for ESOL delivery.

These changes have a wide-reaching impact on all funded adult ESOL provision in England. This webinar warmly invites participation from anyone engaged in delivering adult ESOL programs.
