Sources of Funding Data Definition 2009/2010
A_FUNDINGSOURCE, L_FUNDINGSOURCE
1) Sources of Funding for the Aim/learner.
PURPOSE
2) The funding source for aims is used to identify LSC funded aims/learners for general analysis purposes and for use in the Council’s Statistical First Release (SFR) publication. It distinguishes between LSC DLF funded aims and other sources of funding.

DETAILED DEFINATION
Aim Level
6) The calculation of sources of funding for the aim (A_FUNDINGSOURCE) includes all aims. These are categorised according to the type of LSC funding assigned to it:
7) If the aim generates funding (A_TO_DATE_SLN_PAYMENT=1), funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF Funding’ (A_FUNDINGSOURCE=1).
8) If the aim is Non Formula funded through the Adult Safeguard or Other stream (A10=10 or 80), funding source is set to ‘LSC Non Formula Funding’ (A_FUNDINGSOURCE=2).
9) If the aim is ESF Co-financed (A10=70)
(A_FUNDINGSOURCE=3). ESF Matched is not included.
10) If the aim is flagged as Learner Responsive or Employer Responsive funded (A10=21,22,45 or 46) and generates no funding (A_TO_DATE_SLN_PAYMENT=0), funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF but generates no Funding’ (A_FUNDINGSOURCE =0).
11) If the aim is Non LSC Funded (A10=99), funding source is set to ‘No LSC Funding’ (A_FUNDINGSOURCE=9).
Learner Level
12) The calculation of Sources of Funding for the Learner (L_FUNDINGSOURCE) is based on the funding (A_FUNDINGSOURCE) categories of the aims undertaken by the learner, so where learners aims are:
13) Non LSC funded, funding source for the learner is set to ‘No LSC Funding claimed for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=9).
14) LSC DLF funded but the learner generates no actual funding as they have withdrawn or transferred before the qualifying period, funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF but no Funding generated for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=0).
15) LSC DLF funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF funding only for the learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=1).
16) LSC DLF and LSC Non Formula Funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF & LSC Non Formula Funding for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=2).
17) LSC DLF and ESF Co-financing Funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF and ESF Co-financing Funding for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=3).
18) LSC DLF, LSC Non Formula and ESF Co-financing Funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC DLF, LSC Non Formula and ESF Co-financing Funding for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=4).
19) LSC Non Formula Funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC Non Formula Funding only for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=5).
20) LSC Non Formula and ESF Co-financing Funded, funding source is set to ‘LSC Non Formula & ESF Co-financing Funding for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=6).
21) ESF Co-financing Funded, funding source is set to ‘ESF Co-financing funding only for the Learner’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=7).
22) Inactive aims (A_ACTIVE=0) are excluded from the learner level calculation and are set to ‘Not Applicable/Not Known’ (L_FUNDINGSOURCE=-1).
