To put it mildly, it wasn’t the most popular field: last year 6,453 people started some form of teacher training. We looked at the number of government scholarship places announced by universities and colleges for teacher training courses this year.
The Ministry of Innovation hasn’t done much about it, however Evidenced by admission information: This year, there will be no central initial score limits for the 40 popular majors, for which so far only applicants with relatively high scores can secure a place on a state scholarship. However, there are “framework numbers”: applicants can see the total number of state-supported places in different fields of study. In previous years, there was also an initial point limit for teacher training courses. This year there is no such initial requirement, but universities have announced a fixed number of free places in the training area, and we have calculated it.
