• ITT allocation for 2014-15
• Overview of changes SKE and the impact
• Likely recruitment for 2014-15

Prior SKE – uptake
Data have been requested from the NCTL about uptake during 2011-12
and 12-13 – specifically broken down to show how popular the different
lengths of SKE courses have been.
This will hopefully be available from the NCTL shortly.

Current SKE - major changes
On 29th May 2013, the NCTL contacted universities with information on
their proposed changes to SKE.
• no financial support for "short" courses (50-100hr);
• plans to only fund Chemistry, Physics, Computing and Maths;
• outstanding ITT providers can access “long” SKE courses;
• greater use of summer schools and on-line/distance approaches;
Only these universities had guaranteed PGCE places
• can be
alongside
ITT, or24-36
after ITT,
butSKE
prior to QTS;
forundertaken
2014-15 and
could request
weeks
provision for their trainees.
• SD schools will be able to "draw down resources from the NCTL"
Many responses to the consultation process
recommended that this proposal will not help students
reach the Teaching Standards for subject knowledge.

Nic Dakin:
What assessment [the secretary of state] has made
of the effects of the time taken to allocate SKE
places on the capacity of universities to recruit in…
2013-14.
For what reasons the allocation of SKE to
universities in… 2013-14 was not made until 8 Nov.

Hansard: HC Deb, 18 December 2013, c686W
David Laws:
Following the review of the SKE programme
and subsequent consultation with
stakeholders, we have changed the way
SKE operates.
Once… providers had [ITT] allocations
confirmed on 31st Oct, they could be informed
on 8th Nov that they could access funding for
SKE. This was to increase their capacity to
recruit from 21st Nov, when the UCAS Teacher
Training application system for ITT opened.
