Progression routes to and from CoPE
Client / Age Group:
- Students in Years 10 & 11, either within the whole school PSHE programme or within the option system.
- "High effort" students or those described as gifted and talented in KS3
- Students in Post-16 education, embarking on programmes at levels 1 and 2
LSC funding approval for the ASDAN Certificate of Personal effectiveness (CoPE) appears in the document “School Sixth Form Funding Guidance 2007/08”. The reference to ASDAN appears on page 39. Funding approval also appears in the separate document “ Funding Guidance for Further Education for 2007/08”. See also the Learning Aims Database (LAD) for the FE sector funding rates at www.providers.lsc.gov.uk/lad
Although the funding rates for CoPE as between Sixth Forms and FE colleges are currently different, we understand that the Schools Sixth Form funding rate is to be brought more into line with the FE colleges funding rate in 2008/09 to address this anomaly.
