The Grammar School at Leeds

A huge well done to all of our Year 7 pupils who took part in the fancy dress house park run!

It was fantastic to see the enthusiasm, energy and team spirit on display throughout the event, with pupils encouraging and supporting one another every step of the way.

Together, they have raised over £700 for Leeds Community Foundation - a brilliant achievement!

Thank you to everyone who has supported this wonderful cause.

We are proud to announce that we have been recognised as one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2026 in the Big Organisation category, in the school’s first year of entering the national awards programme.

Year 6 recently visited a mandir as part of their religious studies topic on Hinduism.

During their visit, they had the opportunity to hear from members of the congregation and observe, or even take part in, the aarti ceremony of worship.

It was a fantastic and enriching experience that deepened their understanding of Hindu beliefs and practices, providing valuable insights that they will reflect on and explore further in their learning back at school.

Last week, our Year 9 students took part in a powerful and moving session with the Holocaust Educational Trust (UK).

Through their Testimony 360 programme, they were able to engage directly with the eye-witness stories of Holocaust survivors - asking their own questions and using virtual reality to explore the places as they exist today, where these experiences unfolded, from pre-war homes to sites of deportation and the concentration camps where so many suffered and died.

It was a deeply thought-provoking experience, helping students to better understand the realities of the Holocaust and the importance of remembering these stories.

As the Holocaust moves from living memory into history, opportunities like this are more important than ever - ensuring future generations continue to learn, reflect and remember.

We are delighted to celebrate the success of Year 11 student India, who last week represented Great Britain as part of the junior squad at the FEI Jumping Youth Nations Cup in Busto Arsizio, Italy – one of the leading international team competitions for young show jumpers.
