Written Question
STEM Subjects: GCE A-level
Friday 12th December 2025

Asked by: Olly Glover (Liberal Democrat - Didcot and Wantage)

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what number of students eligible for the 16-19 large programme uplift funding in the last five academic years studied four or more A Levels and pursued STEM-related subjects.

Answered by Josh MacAlister - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

The requested data can be found in the below table. Please note that the large programme uplift (LPU) is calculated using attainment data and as such operates on a three-year lag. Therefore, the latest LPU calculation was for 2025/26 academic year allocations based on 2022/23 attainment data. The department has announced that moving forward LPU funding will be focused on large programmes which include maths, further maths and other high value A-levels.

Time Period

Number of Students

2022/23

7606

2021/22

7875

2020/21

9126

2019/20

8230

2018/19

6485

Notes about the data:

1. Includes state-funded students who ended 16-18 study in the reported year (e.g. 2022/23).

2. Includes students who entered for at least four STEM A levels and achieved at least a grade B in each A level, or a grade C in the case of further mathematics.

3. Discounting rules apply (i.e. where students have multiples entries in the same subject, the best result is included).

4. STEM subjects are defined by subject mapping codes as used in the A level and other 16 to 18 results statistical release.
