Written answers

The qualification criteria for back to education allowance stipulate that the approved full-time education course must lead to a higher qualification on the National Framework of Qualifications other than that already held; existing participants cannot pursue a course at a similar qualification level.

A Case Officer will meet with the person concerned to review options and seek to agree a suitable progression route.
