Leeds
Temple Learning Academy
Close to home and non-selective, but attainment sits below the national average and the last inspection asked for improvement.
What the data says
Published data, read plainly. It tells you what to check next; it does not guarantee a place or replace your local authority’s admissions guidance.
Attainment 8 of 30.7 is significantly below the national average. Progress 8 and pupil context may still indicate positive value-added.
