Tram It is possible to travel directly to the School on the tram from Junction 26 (Phoenix Park) or from the railway station. More information at

Train
Upon arrival at Nottingham Station take the tram (follow NET signs) and get off at the High School stop. Use the tram link above to find out times, fares etc. It is a very reliable and frequent service.
Road
We advise those coming by car and using the M1 to leave the motorway at junction 26, as this is by far the most direct route to the school for those unfamiliar with Nottingham.
Then drive in on the A610 signed "City Centre" until you arrive at the traffic lights with the multi-carriageway ring road (2.7 miles).
* If going to the School Playing Fields at Valley Road, take the left turn onto the ring road (signed Mansfield). Proceed for approx 1.5 miles along the ring road and you will see our fields on your left. Take the left turn at the next island onto the A611. After 150 yds take the left turn into our Playing Fields.
Continue straight ahead on the A610, still following signs for "City Centre", and through a set of pedestrian lights after 0.2 of a mile.
Go past the Volvo garage on the left, and through traffic lights in another 0.2 of a mile.
Over a railway bridge and through another set of pedestrian lights in 0.3 of a mile, and just beyond that through another set of traffic lights.
After a further 0.2 of a mile, go through another set of pedestrian lights by the "Clarence" pub (on your left) - still following signs for A610 "City Centre".
In a further 0.1 of a mile go through another set of traffic lights, and get into the left hand lane (provided that it is not between 0730 and 0930 when it is a bus lane); go past the "Alma" pub of your left; through another set of pedestrian lights in 0.2 of a mile, and immediately afterwards turn left at the traffic lights between the "Dixy Chicken" and the "Premier Convenience shop" into Forest Road West.
At the traffic lights in 0.3 of a mile turn right into Waverley Street.
In a further 0.1 of a mile turn left just past the tram station and park in the visitors' spaces on the left hand side.
(A total distance from the M1 of 4.5 miles.)
The Junior School entrance is on the left, for the Senior School Walk down the steps past the Junior School turn right and then left and go up the stairs at the front of the School as directed by the signs to Reception on the first floor.
