FOOTNOTES

1. The term Scottish resident carries no legal definition. However, there are a number of eligibility criteria, currently used in Scotland, for access to funding for learning. These are set out in the Scottish Executive's guide to learner funding, Helping you meet the costs of learning: Your guide to Funding, http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2005/03/29162117/21195, and on the Scottish Executive's website at: http://www.scotland.gov.uk/fundingforlearners. Adult ESOL literacy learners - i.e. those who have little or no literacy in their own mother-tongue and who have little or no literacy in English and whose spoken English may range from basic to fluent - are eligible for free ESOL with literacies courses, funded under adult literacy and numeracy streams.
