Footnotes

1. Percentage of those awarded QTS teaching in a state-funded school: percentage of those awarded QTS who are employed in a state-funded school in England within 16 months of qualification. 2020/21 employment figures are provisional (uplifted), all prior years are revised. Due to rounding, the sum of constituent parts may differ from the reported total. See methodology for further details.
2. Yet to complete: includes trainees who have not fully completed their course at the end of the academic year. They will go on to be awarded QTS or will complete without being awarded QTS in a later academic year.
3. Other subject: here includes a different mix of subjects to the main targets by subject table, this is for consistency with historic teacher supply model groupings.
4. Teaching in a state-funded school: registered as employed in a state-funded school in England within 16 months of qualification. 2020/21 figures are provisional (uplifted), up to and including 2019/20 are revised. See methodology for further details.
5. Trainees who were not awarded QTS includes those who left the course before the end (excluding those who left the course within 90 days of the start) and trainees who did not meet the standards.
6. This is the first full academic year which has been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. As provisional employment figures are estimated using the previous year's figures, the estimate may not capture the full impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on employment rates. See methodology for further details.
