How to Apply
To gain a place on this prestigious pathway, we are looking for motivated and committed performers who are serious about the arts. It may be that your child has a talent and love for one of the arts in particular, if so we can further tailor the pathway to suit their needs. We anticipate that competition will be high and therefore admission is by audition only and you should submit a Supplementary Information Form (link below), along with applying via Leeds Admissions for a place at TAL.
We wish you all the best in the process, should you have any questions, please contact Cally Northam (PA to the Principal): cnortham@leeds.trinitymat.org. Please do take a look at the other sections of our LAPA website and follow us on X @TrinityLAPA
If your child is unsuccessful, they may still be eligible to attend TAL (please see admission policy) where they will still receive a fantastic academic and arts provision. In the case of a tie-break, priority will be given to students living closest to the school.
