The provisional budget for the expansion of the Troops to Teachers programme is £8.65 million for a further two cohorts. The majority of the funding, approximately £5.32 million, will be used for trainees\u2019 salaries in line with other employment-based initial teacher training routes. The rest will cover the costs of the university course provision, recruitment, marketing and running costs.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The programme budget will be reviewed regularly to reflect the actual number of trainees recruited and to identify any potential savings.<\/p>

I am aware of the BUSK campaign for safe coach transport. The safety of children and young people is of the utmost importance. All school employers must adhere to the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974. They must conduct a risk assessment and put measures in place to minimise any known risk.
