• ST ANTHONY'S SCHOOL DIRECT COURSES CLOSE!

  Wed 10 Feb 2016 Andrew Bove

  We received notification from the NCTL yesterday, that the regional limit for the number of teacher trainees recruited has been reached. Therefore we were instructed to close both our primary general and primary early years course.  This has been effected on UCAS, meaning that we are sadly no longer able to recruit any trainees for the 2016-17 academic year.

   

  Happily, we have been able to recruit 10 really outstanding candidates for both our courses, nearly triple the number that we recruited for this current academic year.  This has been a huge team effort on everyone's part, with Clair McFadden our Assistant Headteacher ably taking the lead.

• ITT Recruitment Figures Reach 75%!

  Wed 03 Feb 2016 A. Bove

  On Monday we received notification from the NCTL that current recruitment figures for the Yorkshire region had reached 75% of the maximum number allowed by the Council!  When the same level for the HE sector was reached back in December, closure of local PGCE courses followed on swiftly and therefore we are expecting our School Direct course to close imminently.

   

  We will continue to update the news section as we receive the figures from the NCTL and will make sure that full notification is given of the course closure.
