At Hillcrest Academy, we firmly believe that children have one chance, and that we have the opportunity and responsibility to create young people who have all of the skills and characteristics needed to go on to greatness. We are proud of our role at the centre of a vibrant, wonderful community, we feel privileged to welcome every child and family into our holistic academy. It is our promise to ensure that children currently living in the Chapeltown, Harehills and surrounding areas of Leeds enjoy access to a truly inspirational primary academy. We continue to show through our work in partnership with other schools and colleagues within The GORSE Academies Trust that no barrier will in any way limit either the quality of a childs educational experience or the levels of achievement to which our children are able to rise

At Hillcrest we establish a mutually supportive and close relationship with all our parents with trust and respect at the heart. We aim to keep parents informed and involved in a positive way, encouraging them to be aspirational about their childs future, and positive about their childs education.

Hillcrest Academy were awarded WCSQM reaccreditation in July 2022
