The overriding aim of Education Leeds is to ensure equality of access to a high standard of education for all children and young people and to make all schools good schools, improving schools and inclusive schools.

The BSF Programme will help us achieve this by:

• Strengthening the role schools play within their local communities developing the schools focus for community cohesion, lifelong learning and inclusive education.
  
  
• Creating and developing the scope for innovative and collaborative approaches thereby maximising potential opportunities for children and young people through a greater diversity of provision.
  
  
• Providing better links between the phases of education and improves and increase training and vocational pathways at 14-19 and 16+.
  
  
• Promoting inclusive opportunities for all children providing appropriate facilities for children with Special Educational Needs.

As a result Leeds schools will be:

• High achieving schools offering children and young people a curriculum suited to their individual needs and offering a variety of learning pathways.
  
  
• Inclusive schools providing appropriate accommodation to support children and young people with particular educational needs.
  
  
• E-confident schools with ICT accessible to everyone at all times.
  
  
• Schools that will act as a real focus for the local community providing Extended Services and community facilities.
