<p>Students cannot apply directly to the Turing Scheme. Education providers and other
eligible organisations can apply to the scheme for funding towards the costs of their
students’ international study and work placements. These organisations are responsible
for planning placements on behalf of their students. This includes recruiting students
and disbursing Turing Scheme funding to them.</p><p>However, 21,353 pupils, learners,
and students participated in international work and education placements in the 2021/22
academic year through the Turing Scheme. The scheme provided funding for 38,374 placements
during the 2022/23 academic year, but the actual number of participants is not yet
known. The department expects to publish data for the 2022/23 academic year this autumn.</p><p>For
the current academic year (2023/24) the Turing Scheme is providing funding for 41,175
pupils, learners and students across the UK. Final data will not be available until
after the academic year ends on 31 August 2024 following the submission of providers’
final reports.</p><p>No data is available for the 2024/25 academic year as applications
from providers are currently being assessed. The department will inform providers
about the outcome of their applications in June 2024 and will announce results publicly
shortly thereafter.</p>
