Leading Together was the key to unlocking the leadership potential in staff at Holybrook Primary and transforming the school and the local community. We spoke to the school's leadership team about their astonishing progression from Inadequate to Outstanding in one Ofsted cycle (during the pandemic, no less).
Holybrook was in special measures in December 2017 when it joined the Exceed Academies Trust. It serves the Ravenscliffe estate in Bradford, and our children are predominantly white British (with 60% entitled to Pupil Premium funding). A quarter of our pupils have special educational needs.
