Agency Form Number(s): ED 524 B 

Form. 

Frequency of Responses: Annually. 

Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal

Abstract: The ED 524B form and 

instructions are used in order for 

grantees to meet Department of 

Education (ED) deadline dates for 

submission of performance reports for 

ED discretionary grant programs. 

Recipients of multi-year discretionary 

grants must submit an annual 

performance report for each year 

funding has been approved in order to 

receive a continuation award. The 

annual performance report should 

demonstrate whether substantial 

progress has been made toward meeting 

the approved goals and objectives of the 

project. ED program offices may also 

require recipients of ‘‘forward funded’’ 

grants that are awarded funds for their 

entire multi-year project up-front in a 

single grant award to submit the ED 

524B on an annual basis. In addition, 

ED program offices may also require 

recipients to use the ED 524B to submit 

their final performance reports to 

demonstrate project success, impact and 

outcomes. In both the annual and final 

performance reports, grantees are 

required to provide data on established 

performance measures for the grant 

program (e.g., Government Performance 

and Results Act measures) and on 

project performance measures that were 

included in the grantee’s approved grant 

application. The ED 524B also contains 

a number of questions related to project 

financial data such as Federal and nonFederal expenditures and indirect cost 

information. Performance reporting 

requirements are found in 34 CFR 74.51, 

75.118, 75.253, 75.590 and 80.40 of the 

Education Department General 

Administrative Regulations.
