Huddersfield University Huddersfield University is our students most popular HE destination and has very powerful links with the school. Many of our sixth formers have pursued the progression module, gaining UCAS points and a guaranteed interview for a degree place at the university. Professor Tim Thornton has been guest of honour and speaker at Celebration Evening and he previously opened our sixth form centre. School Direct (Teacher Training) As the lead school in the Yorkshire Rose Teaching Partnership, we deliver bespoke teacher training packages to outstanding candidates on the School Direct Route. This is an extension of our ‘grow our own’ policy by which we ensure that we identify and train teachers whose values match ours and whose talents we are keen to utilise. The consortium works with local Higher Education institutions, Exceed SCITT and 15 local schools. We also take trainee teachers on placement from Huddersfield University, the Kirklees and Calderdale SCITT and Huddersfield Horizon SCITT.
