Footnotes
- Early career teacher (ECTs) refers to those who started an ECF-based induction.
- The 'Other' category includes all-through schools covering nursery, primary, and secondary levels.
- The ‘Other types’ category includes city technology colleges, further education establishments, sixth form centres, special post-16 institutions and universities. It also includes non-maintained special schools and some independent special schools eligible for funding under Section 41 of the Children and Families Act 2014.
- Percentages are based only on known characteristics; unknowns are excluded from the calculations.
- The 2024/25 characteristic volumes and percentages are provisional. These will be updated next year to include additional characteristics for ECTs who are missing from the current 2024 SWC but appear in next year’s SWC. This will reduce the number of unknowns.
