  • School Direct 21-22 Now Open!

    Wed 14 Oct 2020

    Trying not to constantly repeat, 'what a strange year it's been' is not easy at the moment, but whatever anyone says, it has been a very, very strange year.  Nevertheless, even during Lockdown we at St Anthony's have managed to support and nurture our trainees and now, they have taken their rightful NQT places (many in our Alliance schools) leaving us to turn our attention to seeking out the next batch of outstanding St Anthony's teacher trainees.

     

    And so, in spite of the very strange events of this very strange year, the Application Portal for the 2021-22 School Direct cycle is now open and we at St Anthony's can't wait to welcome the high quality candidates who anticipate will soon be beating a path to our door.

     

    If you are interested in joining our hugely successful training scheme then why not look through the extensive information available on our website.  Although, because of the continuing COVID precautions, we are unable to offer school visits at the moment, we are very happy to support you with your application.  So, if you have any pressing questions about our course or the application and interview process, please don't hesitate to email our Teaching School P.A. , Mr Andrew Bove: a.bove@stanthonysleeds.org.uk who will be able to supply you with his normal detailed and helpful information.

     

    Good luck with your application, your teaching journey starts now!

  • Lisa and Siobhan Leonard, Video Stars!

    Thu 08 Oct 2020

    We've long known that Lisa and Siobhan Leonard are two of the brightest stars in our Alliance firmament, but now it seems they have become movie stars in their own right!  At the behest of the ingenious Trinity marketing division, we have created a promotional video to entertain and beguile potential recruits to our teacher training programmes.  Due to the ongoing COVID situation, the marketing team have devised a virtual event in which videos for each partnership would do the promotion work.  This might not have been as good as the real thing if it were not for the hard work and talents of both Miss Leonards as they wrote, directed and produced their mini-masterpiece (roll-over Orson Welles).  The video features information about the courses, interview process and the general experience of both school Direct and training with the Alliance of the whole, co-hosted by the equally glamorous Gemma Martin and newly Qualified teacher, Lucy Stephens.  Together with a number of still photographs showing our trainees in action as well as the wonderful children in our Alliance, the video brilliantly conveys the reason why everyone should train with St Anthony's.  And if you haven't seen it for yourself, why not visit the Trinity Virtual Open day this Saturday the 10th of October.  And if you can't manage that, why not check out our ITT pages where the video is on prominent display.

     

    That's a wrap everybody!
