About

YORKSHIRE ROSE TEACHING ALLIANCE

Working in partnership with Leeds Metropolitan University and Bradford College to provide high quality teacher training

Yorkshire Rose Teaching Alliance – School Direct:

Batley Girls’ High School is the Lead School in the Yorkshire Rose Teaching Alliance.  The Alliance offers high quality teacher training to graduates in a range of subjects.  The partners are Whitcliffe Mount Business and Enterprise College, Spen Valley Sports College, Castleford Academy, The Mirfield Free Grammar & Sixth Form, BBG Academy, Batley Business & Enterprise College, Kettlethorpe High School and Warwick Road J & I School, all located within a 30 mile radius of each other within West Yorkshire.  We offer the opportunity to work with dedicated professionals who are passionate about providing the best educational experience for future generations of young people.  We believe that the School Direct route enables us to select the best candidates and to provide the best support.

All schools in the Alliance pride themselves on ‘growing their own’ and currently a significant proportion of the workforce trained in their current schools, either through the traditional PGCE route, the Graduate Teacher Training programme or more recently through School Direct. Of these, a sizeable majority are promoted point holders, up to and including at Senior Leadership level.

From 2015 we will be working with Bradford College and Leeds Metropolitan University on this innovative, exciting and high quality approach to Initial Teacher Training. Through it, graduates apply directly to schools to undertake their training as a teacher.  This year-long, school based programme is devised and delivered by our Alliance schools and our partner higher education institutions.

Our Alliance is committed to providing the highest standard of education for the young people in our diverse and relatively disadvantaged urban community in West Yorkshire.  We transform lives, not merely educate or train. Respect for learners and aspiration for all are our central tenets as an Alliance.  If you share our vision for education, we want to hear from you.  We will provide training of the highest quality, delivered by outstanding practitioners in a diverse and stimulating range of schools.  We aim to deliver a bespoke training package, which will make the most of your knowledge and skills.  You will be placed in two of the Alliance Schools and after a year’s successful training, you will achieve a PGCE with QTS.  As an Alliance, we are committed to helping you develop professionally, by providing an extensive programme of Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

It is our aim to train the next generation of outstanding teachers in the West Yorkshire area.
