Carlton Keighley

Welcome to Carlton Keighley. You find the school at an exciting point in its growth towards excellence. The school has been on a rapid journey of improvement since it began working with the outstanding Carlton Academy Trust in September 2019.

In January 2020 the school achieved a ‘Good’ judgement from Ofsted for the first time in the school’s history, and since then the school has gone from strength-to-strength, continuing to raise academic standards. In 2023 we received some of our best ever examination results and were awarded ‘World Class’ status for our innovative approach to personal development, the Carlton Edge.

At Carlton Keighley, we believe that character and culture matter. Our core values are ambition, resilience and respect. We have high standards of behaviour and high academic expectations for all learners. We serve a community which faces significant disadvantages, but do not believe this should be a barrier to the young people achieving incredible outcomes. We believe in educating the whole child and want all of our students to become the best version of themselves.
