Academies in Norfolk

On this page you'll find details of all the Norfolk schools which have converted into academies or have opened as free schools. We have ordered them by date of conversion or opening.

Below we have listed the prospective academies and free schools planned for the current year and beyond with their relevant details. Schools appear on this list once the Academy Order has been issued by the Secretary of State.
