About Abbots Green Primary Academy

Abbots Green Primary Academy is a state primary in West Suffolk that is significantly oversubscribed, a clear signal of its local reputation. The school currently has 593 pupils on roll against a stated capacity of 420, meaning it is operating well above its official limit. For the 2025/26 reception intake, there were 110 total applications for 70 places, with all 70 first-preference applicants receiving an offer. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 1.57, so roughly three children applied for every two places. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 12.5%, which is below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively affluent intake. The school serves children from age 2 through to 11, with nursery provision on site, and is mixed in gender with no religious character. Headteacher Ang Morrison leads a school that has held a Good rating from Ofsted since at least 2012, with its most recent full inspection in 2022 confirming that rating.
