About Trinity Academy Leeds

Trinity Academy Leeds sits within the Leeds local authority, a secondary state school for 951 pupils aged 11 to 16. It is one of 15 schools in the authority rated Outstanding by Ofsted, out of 50 secondary schools overall. Among its closest peers in the area, it ranks alongside The Ruth Gorse Academy, Allerton High School, and Mount St Mary's Catholic High School, the last of which is also the nearest Outstanding-rated school, just 1.1 kilometres away. The school is heavily oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 847 applications for 240 places, with 362 families putting it as their first preference. Of those, 229 were offered a place, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.53 applicants per place. This level of demand reflects its strong local reputation, and the school's non-religious character means it draws from a broad catchment across Leeds.
