Oakbank School has been honoured for significantly improving its GCSE results.
It was among 587 schools across Britain to be highlighted by the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust (SSAT).
The schools were invited to a celebration dinner at the Royal College of Physicians, in London, last month.
Each of the schools met at least one of a range of statistical criteria, including boosting the number of pupils gaining top GCSE grades.
The Keighley school’s head, Chris Thompson, was pleased that the Keighley school’s success had been recognised nationally.
He said the recognition was for improving the number of students who gained five or more GCSEs at grade A* to C, by 10 percentage points between 2005 and 2008.
Out of the 587 schools, South Craven School, in Cross Hills, was one of the 30 most improved. The SSAT delivers the Government’s Specialist Schools and Academies programme. More than 5,000 schools are affiliated to the SSAT.
