About Leeds Mathematics School

Leeds Mathematics School (LMaS) is a new, specialist sixth form college for high-attaining mathematicians in the Leeds city and West Yorkshire region. All LMaStudents study Mathematics and Further Mathematics A-Levels. In Year 12 they study two of Chemistry, Computer Science, Physics and Mandarin Chinese, and in Year 13 they continue one or two of these to A level.


Our unique, enriched curriculum prepares our students for the next stage of their educational journey. We support them to develop the knowledge, skills and attributes that will enable and empower them to make significant future contributions to this region, to their communities, and to global society. We are committed to ensuring that every LMaStudent


• has an exceptional experience every day;


•achieves highly and leaves LMaS with many and meaningful choices available to them: in their learning, in their careers, in their lives.


We opened our stunning new school in the heart of Leeds, on The Headrow, in September 2023. The facilities for teaching and learning are exceptional, to support our evidence-led and research-informed curriculum and pedagogy. Our ongoing professional development is central to the vision, purpose and day-to-day practice of LMaS.


Our first-ever set of A level results in August 2025 made us “the top-performing state school in the Yorkshire and Humber region” (The Times) because


• 31% of A level grades were A* and 83% were A*, A or B;


• 93% of university places are at Russell Group or Guardian Top 30 institutions;


•100% of degree apprenticeship applications to prestigious employers were successful.


We have welcomed our third cohort of 110 students in September 2025. 31% are female or female-identifying, and 26% are from the most disadvantaged postcodes in the region (IMD deciles 1 and 2). We are determined to increase both these proportions.
