Ickworth Park Primary School

Ickworth Park Primary School is a mixed academy located in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, serving children aged 4 to 11. Established in 1990, the school has evolved to meet the educational needs of the local community, particularly following the closure of smaller village schools. With a current enrolment of 197 pupils and a capacity of 210, Ickworth Park aims to create a nurturing environment where each child is valued and encouraged to develop their unique strengths.

The school places a strong emphasis on literacy and mathematics, recognising these skills as foundational for future success. However, the curriculum is designed to be broad and inclusive, providing various opportunities for artistic expression and creativity. Ickworth Park has established partnerships with local organisations, including Ickworth House, to enhance learning experiences.

Community engagement is a key aspect of the school's ethos, with a commitment to working closely with families to support children's progress and development. The school prides itself on fostering strong relationships and believes that collaboration with parents is essential for achieving the best outcomes for students.
