About Alconbury CofE Primary School

If you're looking for a primary school where parents are overwhelmingly positive, Alconbury CofE Primary School makes a strong impression. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, every single parent who responded said they would recommend the school. That's a perfect 100% recommend rate from 110 respondents. The detail backs that up: 75% strongly agreed their child is happy, and the same proportion strongly agreed their child feels safe. On behaviour, 96% of parents agreed or strongly agreed the school ensures pupils are well behaved. The school is also clearly popular locally. For the 2025/26 reception intake, it received 80 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.67. Of those, 25 first-preference families were offered a place, so getting in isn't guaranteed.
