What is LEAPS? Presentation
Please click here to find our What is LEAPS? Presentation to find out more about LEAPS.
The presentation explains more about LEAPS including who we are, what we do, and the support LEAPS offers to LEAPS-eligible students who are aiming for higher education.
We would usually deliver this presentation in person at school parents’ evenings, but as we are currently working remotely due to Covid-19 we created a recording which can be viewed at any time.
