FE England - find the missing millions!
17 March 2021
This tool uses 2019-20 funding data and projects how much extra money your college should have received this year with a 4.7% increase on their 16-19 base rate funding.
Changes in student numbers will affect the final outcome but it is a reasonable starting point for asking questions of your management about your pay rise this year. We deserve an explanation!

We deserve an explanation!
After years of joint campaigning with the Association of Colleges (AoC) we won £400 million of increased government funding for FE, £224 million of which arrived in August 2020 in base rate funding that colleges could spend as they wished - staff pay was always supposed to be top of the list.
Last year the AoC told unions that the money would arrive this year for a more substantial pay offer. FE members deserve an explanation of why the AoC have once again made a derisory recommendation of just 1% when the money has arrived in the sector as they said it would.
Trust needs to be restored and the only way that can happen is if your college management open the books and provide complete transparency. We need to see not just the accounts from last year but the current management accounts and projected budgets going forward.
Trust will only be restored with total transparency. The figure from this tool gives you a starting point to open a discussion with your management about pay in your college and where this year's additional funding has gone if not on pay.
Branches briefed on unpacking and reading college accounts
As we emerge from the shadow of the pandemic, questions still need to be asked about where the £400 million of extra funding has been spent?
We know half of that money could have been spent on staff pay but wasn't. The Association of Colleges have once again made a pay recommendation of just 1%. The same recommendation they have made year after year with no recognition of the extra funding won for the sector by our joint campaigning and lobbying.
UCU engaged expert independent financial analyst Frances Coppola to brief branch officers before they challenge college management on their accounts and find out where the missing millions have gone. You can watch back the webinar below. The
presentation slides used during the webinar are available here [1mb]. See also the letter from UCU to college CEOs and principals
asking them to provide branches with full disclosure of college finances [246kb].
