Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps she will take to increase the number of places available for educational psychology courses at universities in England.

The department is investing £21 million to train 400 more educational psychologists over two cohorts who started their studies in 2024 and 2025 as part of the Educational Psychology Funded Training scheme. This is in addition to the £10 million already being invested in the training of more than 200 educational psychologists who began their training in September 2023.
