Hull has 14 secondary schools and 71 primary schools, as well as over 6000 places for three and four-year-olds in 130 settings. The city also has a high standard of adult and community education.
Hull City Council is the local education authority for Hull. We look after school admissions, helping parents to find and apply for the most appropriate school for their children. We also provide for special education needs to ensure that all children have access to education.
We work with schools and other organisations to tackle issues such as bullying and truancy, we aim to reduce the need for exclusion.
Improving education in Hull is one the council's main priorities. We monitor the quality of education in Hull, and we are continually making significant improvements in educational standards.
