About Leeds East Academy

Leeds East Academy – Everyone Exceptional

A mixed, non-selective, non-denominational, 11-16 academy, situated in Seacroft, Leeds in West Yorkshire.  There are 1025 students on the school roll.

Leeds East Academy is a diverse and vibrant school community which was judged as ‘Good’ during May 2019 across all areas of the Ofsted framework. In the Ofsted report inspectors commented; "Leaders' aspirations for the school are high. They are determined that all of their pupils, regardless of background, will achieve as highly as possible. Leaders have created an ambitious and optimistic culture across the school".

Our vision for the academy is simply, ‘everyone exceptional’ and we pride ourselves on ensuring that all students receive the very best pastoral care and academic support to achieve this. Housed within a state-of-the-art school building, Leeds East Academy is now the premier choice of school for families in the local area. Leeds East Academy is also a highly desirable and dynamic establishment for ambitious education professionals, who will be joining a forward-thinking organisation committed to securing the highest educational, professional and personal standards for the community we serve.

Part of The White Rose Academies Trust - the most rapidly improved family of schools in the region - Leeds East Academy is accelerating on a thrilling journey which will ultimately see the school, its staff and its students, secure an Ofsted rating of outstanding by 2022.

We provide exceptional life training; harnessing the skills and fortifying the aspirations of young people, who we know will transform the region and provide a positive, progressive contribution to society.

The White Rose Academies Trust is a local Trust dedicated to raising and fulfilling the ambitions of young people.  Our academies throughout Leeds are at the heart of the communities they serve, which is why we are committed to delivering an outstanding education to every one of our students.

The Trust employs over 300 outstanding professionals who are committed to unlocking the potential of the next generation.

We benefit hugely from our sponsor, Leeds City College Group, which is one of the largest and most successful FE/HE College Groups in the UK.   Our sponsor provides leadership and operational support and advice to all our Academies.  They also share our vision of creating a truly Outstanding Trust.

Ofsted

“The Executive Principal’s aspirational vision and determination, supported by high-quality Academy leaders and the highly effective local accountability board and Academy Trust has ensured the Academy has improved considerably and rapidly. Teaching is improving quickly across all subjects because teachers are well supported by their leaders and managers. The behaviour of students around the Academy and in classes has been transformed.”
