Of course, it is worth bothering if its an area in which you wish to expand,
since you can then bid for additional numbers at the higher rate!

Subject: Re: Changing a course's price group
Liz,
I've no direct experience - but if the intention is to get additional
HEFCE funding, I wouldn't hold out too much hope. This follows from our
experience at King's when in successive years German and Spanish,
followed by French, were reclassified by HEFCE as being in price group C
rather than D. As we were still within the plus or minus 5% of standard
resource allowed for Teaching, no funding adjustment was forthcoming.
Best wishes,
Brian
