About All Saints Church of England Primary School, Laxfield

All Saints Church of England Primary School in Laxfield is a small, oversubscribed state primary with 95 pupils against a capacity of 119, meaning it runs at around 80% full. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 16.8%, which is slightly above the national average for primary schools. Demand is strong: for the 2025/26 intake, the school offered 16 places and received 25 total applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.56. All 16 first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the numbers suggest families beyond the immediate catchment are keen to get in. The school is a Church of England foundation in Mid Suffolk, led by headteacher Daryl Jones, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2024 judged it Outstanding across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That's a clean sweep of top grades, matching its previous Outstanding rating from 2016.
