Question to the Department for Education:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what are the funding allocations to initial teacher training courses for 2017–18 apportioned by (1) primary phase, and (2) each secondary subject, broken down by (a) higher education, (b) school-centred initial teacher training (SCITT), (c) School Direct fee paying with higher education institutions (HEI) partners, (d) School Direct fee paying with SCITT partners, (e) School Direct salaried with HEI partners, and (f) School Direct salaried with SCITT partners.

The criteria used for three-year allocations for 2017/18 were published in “The allocation of Initial Teacher Training Places 2017-18” on 29 September. The four criteria used were: average degree class of trainees, quality of training measured by OFSTED, quality of outcomes measured by employment into the maintained sector, and recruitment performance against allocations.

We will be publishing the full list of providers eligible for three-year allocations, and the allocations by subject in due course.
