Martin Hastings, CEO of Leyland SDM, said: “A huge congratulations to our 10 finalists! We had a massive response to our Big School Makeover competition so all of these schools have done exceptionally well to stand out from crowd to progress to the next round.

“A three-week voting period now begins to find our overall winner and runners-up. I’m sure all of the schools will be doing everything they can to get as many votes as they can.

“They are all very worthy finalists and I can’t wait to see who comes out on top.
