DCSF guarantee: LAs can recoup money for college fees 14-16s in AP census January 2011

Education Otherwise has just had the following statement confirmed by DCSF:

"Parents of home educated young people between the age of 14 and 16 who have the offer of a place at college 2010-2011 subject to funding can ask their local authority to pay the college fees.
In all cases where the LA agrees to pay the fees, the LA is guaranteed to be able to recoup the money by including the young person in the Alternative Provision census in January 2011"
