uin	216548
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/12/2014 answer text <p>The Department for Education has not estimated the financial costs of replacing a teacher who leaves a school as teacher recruitment is undertaken directly by schools and local authorities.</p><p> </p><p>Evidence is clear that being taught by a good teacher has a significant impact on how well pupils achieve. We are therefore supporting schools to attract and retain high quality teachers, minimising any disruption to children’s learning. Official statistics show that teacher vacancy rates are declining and retention remains stable, with the majority of new teachers still teaching after five years. Children in England now have the best chance they have ever had of attending a good or outstanding school.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Yeovil answering member printed Mr David Laws question first answered 05/12/2014 14:53:58 answering member 1473 label Biography information for Mr David Laws

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/12/2014 answer text <p>The Department for Education uses the Teacher Supply Model (TSM) to calculate the optimum number of Initial Teacher Training (ITT) places required to match the future supply of teachers to the estimated demand for qualified teachers within the state funded sector in England. The National College of Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) use this information to inform their allocation of ITT places to teacher training providers.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department does not include pension and National Insurance contribution as factors in econometric forecasts of numbers who will leave the profession; however we do use average relative pay.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Whilst the Department estimates future teacher demand at a national level, decision-making taken at school level determines the actual number of teachers required. In addition, the reforms to teachers’ pay that were introduced from September 2013 have given schools greater freedom to develop local reward packages which enable them to attract and retain the good teachers they need.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department has published the TSM online, along with an outline of the wastage forecast methodology.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/11/2014 answer text <p>As estimated by the 2015/16 Teacher Supply Model, English primary schools will require 29,700 qualified teachers to enter the active stock in the 2015/16 academic year. The model also estimates that English secondary schools will require 22,500 qualified teachers to enter the active stock in the 2015/16 academic year.</p><p>This need for teachers will be met through a combination of new trainees, those returning to the profession, and those entering the state-funded sector in England for the first time.</p><p>The Department for Education uses the Teacher Supply Model (TSM) to calculate the optimum number of Initial Teacher Training (ITT) places required to match the future supply of teachers to the estimated demand for qualified teachers within the state-funded sector in England. The National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) uses this information to inform their allocation of ITT places to teacher training providers.</p><p>The estimates for the future demand for teachers use the projected number of pupils in schools, assumed Pupil Teacher Ratios (PTRs), and our best estimates for the number of teachers required to implement the Department’s policy initiatives. The model also takes into account other flows within the existing stock of teachers such as those leaving the profession or retiring as well as those expected to return to teaching in the state-funded sector.</p><p>Whilst the Department estimates future teacher demand, decision-making taken at school level determines the actual number of teachers required. As with any forecast, uncertainty increases the further into the future the estimate is made for.</p><p>The Department has published estimates of teacher demand in part 1 of the TSM, published online at:</p><p><a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teacher-supply-model" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/publications/teacher-supply-model</a></p> answering member constituency Yeovil answering member printed Mr David Laws question first answered 11/11/2014 12:40:25 answering member 1473 label Biography information for Mr David Laws
