Some Considerations: • Employer partnership’s are key! • Do you have a strategy? At Trust level? At system level? • Workforce planning – what is the gap you are trying to fill? Are traditional routes not working? • Collaboration is particularly key for smaller and specialist professions • Utilise existing and new education partnership’s BUT don’t be afraid to look outside the region • ROI – grow your own • Staff retention – don't forget existing staff
Looking to the future: Reserved 50,000 more • T Levels funds (non levy Procurement Nurses payers) STP / ICS system Implementation Auger Report transfers? Y&H of new £18M (25% = standards £4.5M)

Utilising the Apprenticeship Levy Amy Drury & Christian Smith - Hull College Group February 2020
What is the Apprenticeship Levy?
What is the Apprenticeship Levy? • The levy applies to all UK private and public sector employers. • Any UK employer with a pay bill of more than £3 million per year is liable to pay the levy. The levy will be 0.5% of the total pay bill, paid through PAYE. This will be a monthly deduction. • An allowance of £15,000 to offset against levy liability. The levy allowance is not a cash payment and cannot be used to purchase apprenticeship training. It is a monthly allowance. • Employers in England who pay the levy will be able to get out more than they pay into the levy , through a 10% top-up to their digital accounts.
Use it or lose it! If you do not claim your levy funding after 24 months then this will be returned to a public pot!
The impact Levy has had on Apprenticeships Businesses blame the complexity and lack of flexibility of the Apprenticeship Levy model, for example: Ownership Support OTJ from Provider
PAYE & Digital Apprenticeship Service (DAS) • Your Payroll department will calculate, report and pay your levy to HMRC, through the Pay as You Earn (PAYE) process alongside Income Tax and National Insurance From 6 th April 2017 • Single employers with multiple PAYE schemes will be added together in levy calculations • Connected employers – The Government have stated you can invest 25% of your Levy funds into supply chains. • If Levy funds run out you will automatically enter Co Investment

Benefits of Apprenticeships • Employers may not have to contribute to National Insurance payments for Apprentices aged 25 and under in line with the upper threshold. • £1,000 Incentive claims can be made for all Apprentices aged 16-18 or 19-24 year old with a EHCP at start. • Plugging skills gaps • Ambition/Drive/Positivity
The Apprenticeship Levy FAQs Q. How can I spend/utilise the apprenticeship levy fund? A. The apprenticeship levy fund can only be spent on services provided by an approved Training Provider to a specified individual registered on an approved apprenticeship Framework / Standard. Q . Can I use my “levy pot” to fund apprenticeships for existing staff? A. Yes, however, the apprenticeship levy cannot be used to fund any other type of CPD. Q. Can the levy be spent to fund apprentices’ wages? A. No, it can only be spent on apprenticeship delivery and not on any other costs associated with your apprentice (such as internal training). Q. How much does apprenticeship training cost? A. This varies considerably and is dependent on the level and framework / standard. SEAC is able to research and advise you on this on your behalf. Q. What if my apprenticeship training costs are more than the levy payments I have made? A. The proposal is that employers will be allowed to make further investment in order to top up their individual apprenticeship levy pot. The Government will also “top up” your fund by 10 %. Q. How long do employers have to claim back their levy funds on apprenticeships training? A. Our understanding is that the apprenticeship levy contribution that you make will be valid for 24 months after it enters you digital account. If you do not claim it back, the unused levy will revert back to HM Treasury.
