Phase Two (CEP 500) commenced in July 2015, with the Government committing an extra £50million from LIBOR fines.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Phase Three began in 2020. The Secretary of State for Defence set an ambition to grow to 60,000 cadets in schools by 2024. This equated to an increase of approximately 4,000 more cadets over and above the levels of growth in numbers that had been forecast in CEP 500 applications from schools.
