Leeds derives its name from the ancient forested area of the Celtic kingdom of Elmet, called Loidis. There are not clear evidence or references that indicate a settlement of the Romans and Anglo-Saxons. The first recorded reference is from a Latin historian named Bede, who speaks in his ‘Historia ecclesiastica’ of an altar located in a region called Loidis, approximately year 730 AD.

Leeds is believed by historians that developed into an agricultural domain during the Norman Conquest period. It was divided into 7 manors, inhabited by the same number of thanes. For 400 years after the Norman invasion in England, Leeds was growing at a very slow pace. The glory of the region was put in the strategic city of Pontefract.

There is no mention of an education system, not until 1552, when a priest called William Sheafield left his property in the town in order for a school to be established, where a school- master will teach, as long as the citizens of Leeds set his wage at 10 pounds per year and find a suitable building for the school. This is actually the origin of the Leeds Grammar School, which expanded by the end of the 16^th century to be an institution of huge importance and contribution

Leeds began to grow vastly during the Industrial Revolution, comparing to the pre Industrial era growth. Railways and factories producing woolen cloth, cotton, machinery and tools, steam engines and gears and other industries based on chemicals, textiles, leather and pottery, along with the extraction of coal led the government of England to promote Leeds and  grant it city status.
