Our Key Stage 4 performance has increased yet again, particularly the percentage of young people achieving 5 A* - C grades. An extra 2500+ young people achieved this important benchmark compared to last year...

There were some extraordinary results from our brilliant schools especially Boston Spa School, Crawshaw High School, Garforth Community College, Morley High School, Cockburn High School and John Smeaton Community School. Congratulations to all those colleagues who have shown what can be achieved with strong leadership, relevant curriculum pathways, highly effective teaching, student tracking, monitoring and support and strong systems of positive discipline and rewards.

The challenge for us all is to continue to build these characteristics consistently and powerfully across all our provision to ensure that we drive transformational change and achieve the step change in outcomes necessary to secure the economic and social well-being of individuals, families and the City of Leeds.
