Footnotes
- Percentage of those who achieved QTS teaching in a state-funded school is the percentage of trainees who achieved QTS who are employed in a state-funded school in England within 16 months of the academic year end. For 2023/24, employment rate figures are provisional (uplifted), all prior years are revised.
- Trainees who did not achieve QTS are those who ended their training during the year and either left the course before the end (excluding those who left the course within 90 days of the start) or did not meet the standards.
- Teaching in a state-funded school is the number of trainees registered as employed in a state-funded school in England within 16 months of the academic year end. For 2023/24, figures are provisional (uplifted), previous years are revised. Due to rounding in the uplift process, the sum of constituent parts may differ from the reported total. See methodology for further details.
- From 2021/22, ethnic background now includes an 'Unknown' category for trainees whose ethnic background is unknown or not declared. Ethnic group totals are calculated with these unknowns included.
- Only trainees who have course outcomes are included, see methodology for further details.
- This publication was produced using data extracted from the Register Trainee Teachers service from the academic year of 2021/22 onwards. This is a move from the previous data source, DTTP (Database of Teacher Training Providers). See methodology for further details.
- Warning: percentages have been rounded and therefore may not sum to 100%.
- Data from 2019/20 onwards have been revised to include "self-funded" trainees, who had been excluded from historic releases of these statistics. These are trainees where the accredited provider has indicated they are not eligible for UK funding. Numbers and percentages do not match historic publications. Care should be taken when comparing numbers of trainees from before 2019/20. See methodology for further detail.
