From the East Leake Academy
I introduce East Leake Academy to you with the utmost delight and pleasure (ELA).
Every young person should have access to a broad and balanced curriculum, in our opinion, so they can develop a genuine love of learning and realise their full potential.
We live up to our principles by offering a comprehensive curriculum, excellent instruction that is centred on the development of information and abilities, and chances for students to explore learning in-depth while honing their debating, problem-solving, critical thinking, and communication skills.
The academy, as a result, consistently surpasses national norms in a wide range of performance metrics and has a great track record of academic success at both GCSE and A Level.
However, there is much more to life at ELA than just excelling in the classroom.
ELA is a particularly exceptional and encouraging environment to learn because of our individualised instruction and extensive extracurricular and curricular offerings.
