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

The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Nottinghamshire before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
