An additional 3,111 prison officers were in place at the end of March 2018 than were in post in October 2016. Continuing to boost staffing numbers is crucial as it will allow prisons to introduce a new model where prison officers spend more time both one-to-one and with small groups of prisoners.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Band 3-5 prison officers who took voluntary early departure and have since re-joined the Prison Service, 2010/11 to 2017/18 (1 April 2017-31 December 2017) </strong></p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p>Headcount</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Restart date</p></td><td><p>Number of band 3-5 prison officers</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010/11</p></td><td><p>3</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011/12</p></td><td><p>4</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>~</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>9</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>106</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>40</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016/17</p></td><td><p>35</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>1 April 2017-31 December 2017</p></td><td><p>14</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Notes:</p><p>1.
