I went on to South Leeds High School to talk to the staff about the Transformation of Secondary and Post-16 Learning, the associated Academies in Leeds Strategy and the role of the Leeds Learning Alliance...

The school has made a great start to the year and the atmosphere, commitment and energy were very obvious as I spoke to these colleagues who are working in one of the most complex and challenging contexts in Leeds. They are really focused on ensuring that the OFSTED visit later this term is a success and that it recognises the real progress the school has made over the Summer. Colin Bell has certainly built a strong and determined team who are up for the challenge.
