Hello

1) Can you please tell me the results of recruits’ literacy and numeracy assessments on arrival at the Army Foundation College for the a) long course and b) short course cohorts in the last year for which figures are available? If the information is not available broken down by long/short course recruits, please send the information for all recruits as a whole.

2) Can you please also tell me what OFQUAL-accredited education (such as Functional Skills courses or similar, for example) is provided to army recruits under age 18 at the Infantry Training Centre (Catterick)?

Thank you for your time

David Gee
