Leeds has a host of brilliant schools, with Ofsted inspectors rating 15 as Outstanding since the start of 2023 but which schools rank the best academically?
Well according to Government data for the academic year 2022/2023, these primary schools rank the best for the percentage of pupils meeting the expected academic standard.
Pupils are meeting the expected standard if they achieve a scaled score of 100 or more in their reading and maths tests, and their teacher assesses them as 'working at the expected standard' or better in writing.
From tomorrow (Tuesday, April 16), parents and guardians will find out if their child has been allocated a place at their preferred school this week.
So with that in mind, here are the 15 best-performing Leeds primary schools ranked by educational attainment. Take a look below and see whether your child’s school is on the list...
