Leeds East Academy (formerly Parklands Girls High School) is a secondary school with academy status, located in the Seacroft area of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England.

The school was previously an all-girls school, being the last single-sex school in Leeds. Parklands Girls High School was particularly small for an urban secondary school with only around 350 pupils, it was this which suggested to Leeds City Council that segregated education was no-longer popular and prompted them to make it a mixed school and it was renamed Parklands High School.

The school is now an academy and has a partnership with Leeds West Academy. The schools were previously sponsored by E-ACT, however in 2014 the schools joined the White Rose Academies Trust with Leeds City College as the main sponsor.^[1] The school moved to new buildings in April 2013.
