About Henley Primary School

Henley Primary School is a small state primary in the Mid Suffolk area of Suffolk, serving 92 pupils aged 4 to 11. Within the local authority’s 253 primary schools, it sits at rank 169, placing it in the bottom half of Suffolk primaries. The top-performing peers in the same area — Stratford St Mary Primary School, Somerleyton Primary School and Wenhaston Primary School — all achieved ranking scores of 89 or above, compared with Henley’s score of 47. The school is oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 50 applications for just 15 places, with 14 of those going to first-preference families. That level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, even if the school’s overall ranking doesn’t place it among the highest performers in Suffolk.
