AELP Webinar: Bursary and Free Meals in FE: Reduce Risks Through Funding Compliance

Facilitator: Lisa Smith, Risk Assessment Director, RSM 

Overview

Recent DfE reviews have highlighted increasing concerns around how bursary and free meal funds are administered across FE providers. Where overclaims are identified, providers must repay funds from their own reserves — a costly and avoidable risk.

Join this practical webinar to ensure your organisation is fully compliant with funding rules and confident in its assurance approach.

Don’t leave compliance to chance — secure your place today.

What you will learn:

  • The key elements of bursary and free meals in FE funding rules
  • How the DfE tests compliance and what they look for
  • Common issues and pitfalls to avoid
  • Practical steps to strengthen your internal processes
