Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many and what proportion of successful applicants to the Troops to Teachers programme left the course before completion in each year since 2018.

The Troops to Teachers programme was closed in 2017 and replaced by a new Troops to Teachers initial teacher training bursary that became available in September 2018. The Department does not hold information centrally on the characteristics of people who are in receipt of the Troops to Teachers bursary.
