Welcome to Nottingham Girls' Academy

At Nottingham Girls' Academy, we are determined that the girls in our Sixth Form achieve highly and leave us as confident, compassionate and articulate young women with the skills to support them through the rest of their lives.

Through our high standards in teaching and pastoral care, we prepare our students for entrance to higher education, high quality employment and apprenticeships - empowered for the future careers of their choice. 

We believe that education is about more than just academic success, and we offer our Sixth Form students many opportunities to grow as individuals through our Ambassador scheme, work experience, summer schools and the IntoUniversity programme.
