I refer the hon. Member to the answer given on 6 November 2012, Official Report, column 553W.
The Secretary of State for Education, the right hon. Member for Surrey Heath (Michael Gove), does not set the content of initial teacher training courses or require that training providers devote a proportion of the syllabus to physical education. It is for training providers to decide what trainees should be taught to enable them to achieve the Teachers' Standards. The Department does not mandate content of initial teacher training courses. Trainees must know and understand the relevant statutory and non-statutory curricula and frameworks, and other relevant information applicable to the age and ability range for which they are trained.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education how many specialist physical education teachers his Department expects to train in the academic year 2013-14; and how many were trained in each academic year since 2008-09.

[holding answer 6 November 2012]: Trainee teachers complete their training and obtain qualified teacher status (QTS) over a period of one to four academic years. It therefore follows that the number of physical education trainee teachers expected to complete their training in the 2013/14 academic year will be indicated by the number of trainees entering courses in the preceding four years.
It is expected that 890 physical education teacher trainees will enter initial teacher training (ITT) in the 2013/14 academic year. This number is higher than the expected figure of 835 in 2012/13. Included within the 2013/14 figure is an interim recruitment target of 555 postgraduate physical education trainees who already hold a degree with a classification 2:1 or above. Both figures for 2013/14 are expected to be finalised early next year.
The available information on the number of specialist physical education teachers who completed training and obtained QTS in 2008/09 and 2009/10 is presented in the following table.
Figures for 2010/11 are expected to be published in early 2013.

[holding answer 6 November 2012]: Information on the number of applications made through the Graduate Teacher Training Registry (GTTR) for physical education Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) courses in England commencing between academic years 2008/09 and 2012/13 is in the following table. Other physical education initial teacher training (ITT) routes are available for graduates but records of applications via these routes are not held centrally.
The GTTR have not yet begun reporting on applications for PGCE courses starting in academic year 2013/14.
| Applications
for physical education PGCE courses commencing in academic years
2008/09 to 2012/13 in
England. | |
| Academic
year of the start of
training | Applications |
| 2008/09 | 2,300 |
| 2009/10 | 2,665 |
| 2010/11 | 3,250 |
| 2011/12 | 3,340 |
| 2012/13 | 2,955 |
| Notes: 1. Figures are rounded to the nearest five and include some applications which were subsequently withdrawn. 2. Some applications for postgraduate ITT courses are made independently of the GTTR and are not included in the figures. 3. Membership of the GTTR changes between years, therefore the number of higher education institutions covered in this table varies from year to year. 4. The applications are shown against the year training would commence if accepted. The majority of applications would typically have been made in the previous academic year, though some may be made early in the academic year of training commencing. 5. Applications are counted for providers in England where physical education was at least one of the choices made. Individual applicants can place more than one application, and so the number of applicants may be smaller. Source: GTTR |
