Mr. Joyce: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment how many teaching vacancies in (a) schools and (b) colleges in England and Wales were filled during the financial year 1999-2000. [155624] Ms Estelle Morris: [holding answer 27 March 2001]: The number of teachers recruited to a full-time post (new entrants and teachers moving to jobs from other schools/colleges) in England in financial years 1997-1998 and 1998-1999 (the latest year for which data are available), were as follows: _________________________________________________________________________________________________. 1997-98 1998-99{ 1} Maintained schools sector 52,100 (14.4%) 50,200 (14.0%) FE colleges 3,700 (7.5%) 4,100 (9.1%) _________________________________________________________________________________________________. {1} Provisional The figures in brackets are recruits as a percentage of the total number of teachers in post at the beginning of the financial year. There was a fall in the number of teachers leaving the maintained school sector in England, 27,570 (6.6 per cent.) in 1998-99 compared with 34,250 (8.2 per cent.) in 1997-98, following the 1997 reform of the Teachers Pension Scheme. The full-time equivalent (FTE) number of regular teachers (excluding short-term supply) in the maintained schools sector in England at January 2001 was 410,280, an increase of 12,600 since January 1998: _________________________________________________________________________________________________. January FTE{ 1} 1998 397,700 1999 401,200 2000 404.600 2001 410,280 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. {1} Rounded There was a growth of 2,300 in the number of people recruited to train as teachers between 1999-2000 and 2000-01, the first such increase since 1992-93. From April 2001 new graduate recruits can expect to earn £17,000 a year (up 6 per cent. from the previous year) and starting salaries in Inner London will rise to £20,000 (up 9 per cent. from the previous year). Teacher information for Wales is the responsibility of the National Assembly for Wales.
