These were the best schools in Leeds for A Level results in 2025.
As sixth form pupils begin to relax after the 2026 A Level exam season ended last week, we have taken a look at the Department for Education’s scoring for which schools and colleges in Leeds ranked the best according to their percentage of pupils achieving AAB or higher in their A Level results in 2025.
Facilitating A Levels are ones that are commonly needed for entry to leading universities. They are: biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, further mathematics, geography, history, English literature and classical or modern languages.
We have created a league table ranking the 18 highest-performing secondary schools and colleges in Leeds based on their final A Level results for the 2024/25 academic year.
Take a look below and see whether your child’s school is on the list...
