How to use your FECCA funding effectively
The Further Education College Condition Allocation is guaranteed capital funding for FE providers, with payments typically provided at the start of the new financial year. Funding is formulaic based on the government’s assessment of your estates condition, making it important that your allocation is well planned to address the biggest areas of concern and opportunities for growth.
- Our professionals help you create a clear property maintenance and expansion strategy, ensuring FECCA funding is distributed in line with these goals
- We deliver up-to-date assessments on the condition of your estate, highlighting any required updates to your overall strategy
- We provide a costed list of priority projects to make sure they meet your allocation
- We effectively administer and manage your projects, so they are delivered on time, on budget and meet your expectations for quality

What our education clients say
Our work is built around giving school leaders and estates teams clear advice, practical support and confidence throughout the project.
We have had an excellent experience working with AEC. Their support in drawing up comprehensive plans and costings for a new SEN centre on our campus has been invaluable. Their expert advice has enabled us to navigate complex regulations with confidence, and we have found them extremely responsive and adaptable during our many back-and-forth discussions. We couldn't be happier with their service.
AEC has provided us with high quality support during each stage of our project. A collaborative, patient approach was taken with our stakeholders which helped to ensure that the designs of our space were able to evolve to support our overall vision. Communication has been clear throughout the project and we have felt that AEC have acted in our best interests at each and every stage of the project.
AEC have been nothing short of exceptional in supporting the school through the disruption that comes with (multiple) roof changes, including those imposed externally at short notice. They offered our team full reassurance that complex, and potentially dangerous projects were well thought through, managed to time (in some cases ahead of time) and safe. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
