The answer

Answered by Jim Wallace on 18 Mar 2004 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

Because of the fundamental role that FE colleges have in encouraging people of all ages and from different backgrounds to participate in post-school learning, a large proportion of the resources available to FE colleges can be associated in some way with the promotion of social inclusion.
The figures provided in the table relate to the specific elements that cover the additional costs of social inclusion, over and above the standard funding perstudent place, provided to colleges by the Scottish Further Education FundingCouncil in 2003-04.
