Copdock Primary School

Ipswich, IP8 3HY · Suffolk · primary school

Ofsted: Outstanding · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
4.4/10 Broadly average

118th 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.

Narrow the comparison to the 2,937 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.5/10 among them, against 1.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 50.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in June 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.5 out of 10 among them, against 1.6 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Multi-School Council, Head Pupils, School Council, Bentley School Council, Copdock School Council, and Sports Crew. Trips include Forest Schools, Allotment, and Orienteering. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 83 pupils in a capacity of 84 places, leaving just 1 spare place. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 1 place remaining, how does the school manage admissions if a child leaves mid-year? Since there is no breakfast club, what options exist for early morning care? How does the school support pupils who did not reach the higher standard in 2024/25?
