LLE guidance

When the Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE) launches, it will change the way providers set their tuition fee limits. The government has set limits on what they can charge students for tuition. Launching in 2025, the LLE will transform the post-18 student finance system in England. DfE’s guidance explains how tuition fee limits will change for the LLE.

The Office for Students (OfS) has published a blog post exploring the new Lifelong Learning Entitlement and their role in introducing it from academic year 2025/26. Later this year, they’ll be discussing the development of a third category of registration which will allow you to apply for inclusion on the OfS Register.

If this deadline’s missed, please sign the contract by 5 December. Find more information in the funding rules.
