THE SAMWORTH CHURCH ACADEMY has opened in the existing buildings of Sherwood Hall School. It will move to brand new purpose-built
accommodation in 2010. This exciting project is jointly financed by local retired businessman David Samworth and by the Diocese of Southwell
and Nottingham. Open to young people of any faith or none, the declared aim is " . . . to create a school that is built on respect and avoids
any kind of discrimination (and with) Christian values and ethos".
For well over 400 years the QUEEN ELIZABETH school has served the educational needs of the young people of Mansfield.
Recently renamed THE QUEEN ELIZABETH'S (1561) ENDOWED SCHOOL, the Diocese plays an important role in its ethos.
Proud of its heritage but determined to meet the needs of 21st century young people, the school strives towards ever higher standards. "We are proud
to serve our community and through partnership we are making The Queen Elizabeth's School an exciting place to learn together."
