About Norbreck Primary Academy
Parents at Norbreck Primary Academy are overwhelmingly positive about the school. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, 94% of the 111 respondents said they would recommend the school to other parents. That’s a very strong signal. The detail backs it up: 96% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy, and 99% felt their child is safe. On behaviour, 90% agreed the school ensures pupils are well behaved. The school is also popular locally. For the 2025/26 reception intake, Norbreck received 148 applications for 87 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.7 applicants per place. 84 of those applications were first-preference choices, and all 84 first-preference families were offered a spot. That combination of high parental satisfaction and strong demand suggests a school that is delivering what families in Blackpool are looking for.
