Apprenticeship Funding Reforms for Non-Levy Paying Employers

All employers who have an annual payroll of less than £3m will not have to pay into the levy, but will still be subject to funding changes for apprenticeships.

In addition to the information on the main page, below are further details for non-levy paying employers.

  • The Digital Apprenticeship Service will not be available to non-levy paying employers until at least 2018. Employers will need to search on the gov.uk website for training providers and pay in the same way until the Digital Apprenticeship Service is accessible to you.
  • Co-investment is a requirement. Non-levy paying employers will need to co-invest 5% of the costs, with the government paying the remaining 95%.
  • Non-levy paying employers who take on apprentices who are 16 to 18-years-old, 19 to 24-year-old care leavers or those with an Education and Health Care Plan, will benefit from a 100% contribution from government to the cost of training.*
  • Non-levy paying employers will still be able take advantage of available government funding, which may include an employer contribution.

One Message, Different Voices

Take a look at this powerful film made by the staff of Weston College to show how important it is for everyone from different backgrounds to be included. The film shares heartfelt stories and interviews with a diverse group of staff, showing how accepting different identities and backgrounds can make a big difference. Its purpose is to encourage viewers to think about their own biases and work towards making our community more welcoming to all. We invite everyone, regardless of their background, to join us and be a part of our journey toward a more inclusive future.

Halo workplace logo

Our workplace champions the right of staff to embrace all Afro-hairstyles. We acknowledge that Afro-textured hair is an important part of our Black employees’ racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities, and requires specific styling for hair health and maintenance. We celebrate Afro-textured hair worn in all styles including, but not limited to, afros, locs, twists, braids, cornrows, fades, hair straightened through the application of heat or chemicals, weaves, wigs, headscarves, and wraps. In this workplace, we recognise and celebrate our colleagues’ identities. We are a community built on an ethos of equality and respect where hair texture and style have no bearing on an employee's ability to succeed.
