This includes funding for widening participation, which provides additional support for widening access for students from disadvantaged backgrounds and improving provision for disabled students; and funding for teaching enhancement and student success, which includes allocations for improving student retention, institutional learning and teaching strategies, and research-informed teaching.
Moderation ensures that the reductions in funding through HEFCE's formula allocations are manageable. For 2011-12, moderation funding is limited to £30 million for the sector. This has therefore required a threshold in these provisional allocations such that no institution sees a reduction of more than 3.9 per cent in cash terms compared with the equivalent, unmoderated figure for 2010-11. As in previous years, we do not provide moderation funding if it amounts to less than £100,000.
The University Modernisation Fund (UMF) was a new initiative introduced in April 2010 to support increases in student places, and the funding was provided for one year only. This column shows the percentage change in institutions' grants when the UMF is excluded from the comparison.
Most of the University of London's HEFCE grant is paid through special funding, not recurrent grant. Taking account of its special funding allocation, the underlying change to the university's grant is -1.9%.
