By car
We aim to be environmentally conscious and discourage parents from dropping-off their children by car if at all possible, especially at peak times in the morning and at the end of the academy day due to the congestion this causes to our neighbours. Should car transport be unavoidable, ample car parking spaces are provided across from the academy and East Leake Leisure Centre.
