I challenge anyone who thinks we are still a special measures school to come in and take a look.
We have achieved the best results in the last six years because of hard work from the students and staff combined with the support of our parents.
York High is a genuine community and when we achieve success we achieve it together.
York High School is clearly a school that is on the up: well done Class of 2019!
