Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the overall pass rates were for the British Army personal fitness assessment in each of the last five years.
The percentage of trained personnel who achieved the target level, against the total number who took the Personal Fitness Assessment (PFA), can be found below for each of the last five years. Those who failed the assessment would have been supported with a personal fitness plan.
Training Year | 2014-15 | 2015-16 | 2016-17 | 2017-18 | 2018-19 |
Pass Rate Regular (%) | 98 | 97 | 96 | 95 | 95 |
Pass Rate Reserve (%) | 80 | 80 | 76 | 70 | 71 |
