DS Y14 may do an art foundation year. Our local sixth form provide this. He will still be under 19 by Aug 31st 2019.
I was told by a work colleague that this year's entry, which his DD is on, it's free; next year's entry (DS's) will cost something like £2400.
Today we did a uni Open Day who also do a foundation year. They said that their course was free if the student was, as above, still under 19 at the end of Sept.
Presumably this is 'central funding', so can anyone enlighten me?
Will we be forking out for the foundation year or not?
For the record, the sixth form is great with DC who follow the '3 A levels and off to uni' trajectory, but a bit clueless about their BTEC'ers and 'off the beaten track-ers'....

Funding. Do they still fund 3 years of 16-18 ed?
