Welcome to George Spencer Academy

As a founder member school of the Spencer Academies Trust, George Spencer Academy has a national reputation for providing high quality education for students of all abilities.

In turn one of the first schools to academise; one of the first lead schools at the foundation of a multi-academy trust, and the lead school at the centre of a network of education support and outreach including teacher training and subject hubs; George Spencer is known for our innovative, research-led teaching and pedagogy.

We offer an exceptional quality of education and support for students from the Nottinghamshire communities we serve. Students and families choosing to be part of George Spencer, choose to be part of something special; in a school where we demonstrate our ‘ethos of excellence’ daily.
