Transparency data: Adult skills fund (ASF) postcode files

You might also find reference data on area cost uplifts and disadvantage uplift factors to use with funding calculations useful.

We use this data in the funding system to support publicly funded education and skills in England. This covers ASF, both in devolved and non-devolved areas.

The guidance document accompanying the data file explains how we use this data and what you can do with it to aid your enrolment of learners, and creation of individualised learner record data.

The complete ASF postcode dataset is too large for you to open conventionally in spreadsheet software. You can load this file into a database or BI software to query the whole dataset.

To allow you to view the data in a spreadsheet, we have split the complete ASF postcode dataset into several spreadsheet readable csv files.

This file contains just the postcodes from the complete ASF postcode file that fall within devolved authority areas.
