The Department for Education has made no estimate of the number of people on the Erasmus Scheme working in schools in the UK. This is because the European Commission records the number of incoming mobilities to the UK. Statistical analysis provides a breakdown by country for school staff mobilities (KA101) but does not break down figures for centralised school mobilities, such as strategic partnerships for school education (KA201) and school exchange partnerships (KA229) by country. Under the 2018 call for proposals, the UK had 2,345 participants for KA101, and 1,912 participants under the 2017 call for proposals.
