<p>The table below shows the percentage of the postgraduate Initial Teacher Training
(ITT) target achieved in religious education and modern foreign languages for the
years shown.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Academic Year</p></td><td><p>2017/18</p></td><td><p>2018/19</p></td><td><p>2019/20</p></td><td><p>2021/22</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Religious

Census year</li><li>All figures given are revised.</li><li>Cumulative performance
has not been presented in the table for the following reasons. Doing this could create
a misleading answer, as recruitment could be particularly strong/weak during individual
years.T he methodology for calculating targets has also changed during this period
as the Department moved from the Teacher Supply Model to the Teacher Workforce Model.
The chosen approach gives the most robust answer, controlling for year on year shifts
in the data, whilst staying true to the question.</li></ol><p>The Department estimates
the number of postgraduate ITT trainees required to meet teacher demand in England
each year using the teacher workforce model. The model includes an adjustment to build
in any impacts of recruitment being below target for the two previous ITT recruitment
rounds, for both primary, and each secondary subject.</p><p>The model uses ITT recruitment
data, ITT completion and post-ITT employment rates to estimate the number of newly
qualified teachers (NQTs) entering the workforce having trained via all forms of ITT
in the two most recent ITT cycles.</p>
