Our Schools
We currently work with state secondary schools throughout South East Scotland, which we divide into our Group 1+ schools, our Group 1 schools, and our Group 2 schools. Our school groupings are regularly reviewed. Please see below for more information.
The school groupings below will be effective from August 2022.
If you have any queries about our school groupings, including for the most recent school year, please contact us.
LEAPS Group 1+ Schools
Schools in Group 1+ typically have rates of progression to higher education that are some way below the national average. For this reason, these schools are normally entitled to participate in all aspects of the LEAPS programme, from S3 to S6, as well as some bespoke activities.
