About Waldringfield Primary School

Just over half of parents who responded to the most recent Parent View questionnaire would recommend Waldringfield Primary School to other families, a figure that sits below the national average for primary schools. The school is not currently oversubscribed, with a published capacity of 105 places, suggesting that local families have not been forced to compete for spots in recent admission rounds. This is a small village primary in East Suffolk, and its size means that children are likely to be known well by staff. The school offers nursery provision for three-year-olds, which can make the transition into Reception smoother for local families. While the parent recommendation rate is modest, the school does have a range of facilities that smaller primaries sometimes lack, including a sensory room, forest school area, art studios, music rooms and a gymnasium. Clubs such as book club, gardening, coding, drama, film club and eco club give pupils a chance to explore interests beyond the core curriculum.
