These are some of the very best schools and colleges within Leeds, according to the education watchdog Ofsted.
Ofsted inspectors make graded judgements on a number of areas which include the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership at the school.
Schools are graded on a four-point scale, from grade 1 (outstanding), 2 (good), 3 (requires improvement) and 4 (inadequate). To achieve an 'outstanding' grade, a school will need to be given a Grade 1 for most categories. It means the school has convinced inspectors that they are providing the highest standards of education. Safeguarding must also be effective.
