About Framlingham Sir Robert Hitcham's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School

Framlingham Sir Robert Hitcham's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School is a state primary in the Suffolk local authority, sitting within the East Suffolk borough. Among the 253 primary schools of the same type across Suffolk, it ranks 47th, placing it comfortably in the top 20 per cent of its peers. The school’s ranking score of 70 puts it behind the top three in the local area — Stratford St Mary, Somerleyton, and Wenhaston primary schools, which each scored 92 or 89. Still, for a mixed, Church of England primary serving 340 pupils from ages three to eleven, this is a solid showing. The school is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 37 applications for 28 places, with all 28 first-preference families offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.32 suggests a school that local families actively seek out, and its Good rating from Ofsted in 2023 — consistent across every category including early years provision, behaviour, leadership, and personal development — reinforces that reputation.
