"Campaigners have questioned why the Department for Education has supported a new secondary school with such low numbers in a city facing a major shortage of places in many areas.
"However the Leeds Jewish Free School said its population will rise to 175 over time and that the scheme was providing the city’s Jewish community with the school it has wanted for decades.
"The school is based on the site of the existing Jewish Brodetsky Primary, in Alwoodley, with the same head teacher, Jeremy Dunford. Teaching staff are being brought in from Rodillian Academy to provide secular teaching."
