Iceni Primary Academy
About Iceni Primary Academy
Iceni Primary Academy, a state primary school in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, has been rated Good by Ofsted in its most recent inspection, a solid foundation for a school that operates at full capacity with 105 pupils. The most telling academic metric available is the school’s Key Stage 2 performance, which sits above the local authority average of 52 — a meaningful benchmark given that Norfolk has 344 primary schools in total, with only 21 rated Outstanding. This suggests Iceni delivers above-average outcomes for its pupils, particularly impressive for a small school where every child’s progress counts. The headteacher, Emma Owner, leads a mixed-gender, non-selective school for ages 4 to 11, and the absence of a sixth form or nursery provision means the focus is squarely on the primary years. With 10. 5% of pupils eligible for free school meals, the school serves a broadly representative community, and its Good rating alongside stronger-than-average KS2 results paints a picture of a school that is quietly effective.
