Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many teacher training places were allocated in (a) English, (b) mathematics, (c) all sciences, (d) general science, (e) biology, (f) chemistry, (g) physics, (h) ICT, (i) design and technology, (j) modern languages, (k) geography, (l) history, (m) art and design, (n) music, (o) physical education, (p) religious education, (q) business studies, (r) citizenship, (s) 14 to 19 diploma subjects, (t) other subjects and in all (u) secondary and (v) primary schools across all initial teacher training pathways in (i) 2009-10, (ii) 2010-11, (iii) 2011-12 and (iv) 2012-13.

The Department did not allocate places directly to primary or secondary schools in 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12. Places were allocated to accredited initial teacher training (ITT) providers and it is their responsibility to arrange school placements.

For 2012-13, School Direct allocations were assigned to lead schools. This was published alongside all other ITT allocations by the Training and Development Agency. School Direct places are below.
