Welcome to Queen Elizabeth’s Academy

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to Queen Elizabeth’s Academy, we are delighted that you have chosen our academy for the next steps in your child’s education. Transition is an exciting time and we really hope that your child enjoys their first experiences of the academy and it helps to ensure a smooth transition from year 6 to year 7.

Sending your child off to secondary school can be daunting but we are confident that they will quickly settle in and enjoy their time as a member of our academy.

For those pupils who have been offered a place at Queen Elizabeth’s Academy, it’s very important to accept this offer as soon as you can – parents/carers will need to do this through Nottinghamshire County Council – an email should have been received with instructions on how to do this.

We are here to support year 6 pupils with transition to secondary education.
