Advanced Learner Loans – Learning Provider forums

We'll be running face-to-face and virtual forums in March 2025. Here, we'll reflect on the current academic year and look towards academic year 2025/26. We’ll consider how the further education sector is evolving and the latest updates on the Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE). You’ll be able to feed back on all areas of our partnership and speak with other providers. We’ll publish dates and venues shortly.

UK birth or adoption certificates

We now accept clear photocopies of UK birth or adoption certificates for ALL applications. You can visit the Practitioners’ website to view the ALL guidance in more detail.

January performance management review point (PMP)

The final ALL PMP for AY 2024/25 is on 16 January 2025. You'll need to have used 90% or more of your loan facility to be in scope for a growth award. If you do not meet the criteria in the funding rules but need growth, contact your ESFA provider facing team lead to request an exceptions case form -available from 6 January. Track your facility usage with the loan facility details report in the financials home section of the Learning Provider Portal.
