Nottingham Academy is an academy school located in Nottingham, England. It is an all-through 3-19 school. The school is made up from two (formerly three) predecessor schools, Greenwood Dale 11-19, The Jesse Boot Primary School 3–11, and formerly Elliott Durham 11–16.

The Nottingham Academy was founded in 2009 but formally opened during the year of 2011 when Greenwood Campus had completed construction, becoming the 'largest school in Europe', serving up to 3,780 pupils ages 3–19. It is administered by a principal, and each site has a Head of School. The academy is sponsored by the Greenwood Academies Trust (GAT).

In September 2020, The Nottingham Academy, Greenwood Campus and Ransom Campus separated and become two individual schools under the Greenwood Academies Trust. The Greenwood Campus remained called The Nottingham Academy while the Ransom Campus became The Wells Academy.
