Footnotes
- Other subject includes general sciences, media & communication studies, psychology and social sciences.
- 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.
- Total trainees for 2017/18 excludes one AO trainee with missing subject information.
- 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%.
- The EYITT assessment only route is not included in this publication.
- Data from 2019/20 onwards include "self-funded" trainees, who had been excluded from historic releases of these statistics prior to the 2023/24 release. These are trainees where the accredited provider has indicated they are not eligible for UK funding. Numbers and percentages do not match historic publications prior to 2023/24. Care should be taken when comparing numbers of trainees from before 2019/20. See methodology for further detail.
- Teachers who trained and qualified in specific overseas countries and regions can gain qualified teacher status (QTS) with no further ITT or AO in England. Figures for these teachers are published in the yearly Teacher Regulation Agency Annual Reports, which can be found online Teaching Regulation Agency annual report and accounts 2024 to 2025 - GOV.UK (opens in new tab)
