2025 Foundation Programme Allocation
Posted on:
The UKFPO can confirm that this morning all 10,634 eligible applicants for the 2025 Foundation Programme were allocated to a Foundation School, with 84% of those applicants getting their first preference.
This is an improvement on last year when 9,702 applicants were placed and 75% got their first preference.
This is the second year of using a Preference Informed Allocation (PIA) method where applicants are given a computer-generated rank rather than being required to sit the Situational Judgement Test (SJT).
