, published in 2022, found that 95% of graduates were either employed or enrolled in postsecondary education

need to flourish. This is why the National Student Satisfaction Survey among mainstream universities in 2022 found

Although the institution has always placed a strong emphasis on teacher education and theology, it has recently made significant investments in expanding its media studies and journalism programmes, providing students with access to well-equipped studios in a variety of disciplines. Two-year degrees in fields like sports coaching and tourism and leisure management are just a few of the new programmes that have been made available in recent years. Every degree at Leeds Trinity includes a professional work placement, which is a great opportunity for students.
History
Trinity College and All Saints College were founded in 1966, but were
initially run independently by the Sisters of the Cross and Passion and
the Catholic Education Council
, respectively
Principals Sister Augusta Maria and Andrew Kean worked closely
together and eventually split up administrative duties while being assigned to different schools. Kean oversaw the
school’s curricula, faculty, and external relations, while Sister Augusta oversaw the institution’s finances, physical
plant, student life, and administrative functions. The Andrew Kean Learning Centre and the Sister Augusta Maria C.P.
Auditorium both bear their names today.
Since there was such a high demand for teachers in the 1960s, these
institutions sought to differentiate themselves from their competitors by giving their students a more hands-on
education in the classroom.
Location
Located only 15 minutes from the heart of the city, the
Horsforth campus is home to a wide variety of stores, restaurants, and entertainment options, from quaint cafés to
enormous entertainment complexes. Numerous bars and restaurants line both Town Street in Horsforth and Otley Road in
Headingley, making them popular among students.
