East Leake Academy Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for East Leake Academy?
The catchment area for East Leake Academy is the geographic zone Nottinghamshire uses to prioritise admissions when this secondary school receives more applications than it has places.

Nottinghamshire publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
