The UK Department for Education has announced the rollout of the Lifelong Learning Entitlement, set to begin in 2025. This initiative will provide adults in England with a loan entitlement equivalent to four years of post-18 education (£37,000), which can be used flexibly over a lifetime for a variety of approved courses and modules.
The scheme is designed to support skills development, career changes, and access to higher-level qualifications, including part-time and modular study. It marks a significant shift in the way education is accessed in the UK, aiming to make upskilling and retraining more accessible and affordable for learners at all stages of life.
