Study Children, Young People and Families at Leeds Trinity

At Leeds Trinity, you'll gain the skills and confidence to support children and families through education, early intervention and care.

You'll learn from experienced professionals in small classes, with a strong focus on real-world practice.

Depending on your chosen degree, you can complete professional placements, study, work or volunteer overseas.

You'll graduate with practical knowledge, a strong understanding of safeguarding and wellbeing, and the ability to make a real difference in people's lives.

Your journey starts here

Clearing opens on 2 July. If you've changed your mind about your university or course, received different results to what you were expecting, or are applying for the first time, Clearing gives you the chance to take control of your future.

Whether you're interested in studying with us this year or next year, our Open Day on Saturday 4 July is the perfect place to start.

You'll have the chance to learn more about the courses you're interested in, ask your Clearing questions, chat to our students and academics and get a feel for student life at LTU.
