Transitional Arrangements for 2011/12
There will be transitional arrangements for 2011/12 only, to help those who are currently receiving ALG who are part-way through their learning to continue to get support to enable them to complete their course.
Only learners continuing on the same learning programme at the same level will be eligible to receive weekly ALG payments in the 2011/12 academic year. For example, an individual who started on a level 3 learning programme in 2010/11 and who is continuing on the same level 3 learning programme in 2011/12. The learning programme must be undertaken at the same learning provider the individual was enrolled with in the previous academic year unless there are genuine exceptional circumstances which prevent this.
Learners who received ALG in 2010/11 but who are starting a new learning programme in 2011/12 will not be eligible for ALG.
You must also be studying full time - at least 12 hours a week (equivalent to 450 hours of 'guided learning' a year, or 150 hours a term) - and attending college regularly.
Please note
ALG is paid only on 100% attendance and achievement of certain other milestones during your course, including achievement and attendance of public exams.
