Choosing a School in Leeds

Leeds has no state grammar schools, but several areas are highly sought-after for their school quality. Roundhay in the north is particularly popular, with Roundhay School rated Outstanding and the 700-acre Roundhay Park on the doorstep. Other family favourites include Horsforth, Alwoodley, and Adel, all with strong primary schools. The Grammar School at Leeds (GSAL) is a well-regarded independent option. House prices in these areas carry a premium due to school catchments.
