Abbots Green Primary Academy
Bury St Edmunds, IP32 7PJ · Suffolk · primary school
11th of 232 primary schools in Suffolk we can score, 253 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.3/10 against 4,356 of them, against 9.1/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 82.0 · 90 | 40% | 3.63 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.79 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 21.0 · 93 | 25% | 2.33 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 82.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 21.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2022. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Abbots Green Football Club and participate in Outdoor Learning Day, Welly Wednesdays, and Discover and Do trips. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 593 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 173. This means places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 173 more pupils than its stated capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? How does the breakfast club operate during the busy start-of-term weeks?
