I went on to South Leeds High School where Colin Bell and his colleagues have made a great start to the new year...

Colin is an exceptional colleague whose personal commitment, energy and determination have achieved great things at South Leeds despite the fact that it sits in the dreaded Special Measures. Colin tells me, and the grapevine has confirmed this, that things are going well this term and that the school is much more at ease with itself.

We must all work with Colin and his team to ensure that the success story that is South Leeds High School continues to be told and that we help with the continuing challenges around teaching and learning and behaviour and attendance.
