Mark Sewards MP visits Leeds City College’s 14+ Academies
Posted: October 3, 2025
This month, we welcomed Mark Sewards MP to our 14+ Academies at Leeds City College.
He toured the facilities, met learners, and heard first-hand the impact that attending the 14+ Academies has on students’ confidence and future aspirations.
Our 14+ Academies provide a different environment and level of support for young people to achieve GCSEs alongside vocational studies.
The different environment, culture and level of support on offer have proven particularly effective in engaging young people disenfranchised by a more traditional approach to 14-16 education.
For many students, this provision is a lifeline that offers a route through education that traditional schooling could not.
