The number of places initially allocated for citizenship each year since the academic year 2013/14 is shown in the table below:
Academic year (of training) | Initial allocation of citizenship places |
2013/14 | 147 |
2014/15 | 149 |
2015/16 | 175 |

Data for earlier years are not directly comparable with those shown in the table as they include allocations for Personal, Social and Health Education and Social Studies within the total for Citizenship.
