Gusford Primary School

Gusford Primary School

Gusford Primary School converted to become an academy in 2013 as part of the Active Learning Trust. 

Ofsted most recently visited in November 2024 were recognised as being Good across the board, plus outstanding in Personal Development. This was a fantastic achievement for the school community.

The school has over 600 pupils and has a good reputation for supporting them to develop positive learning behaviours and works with organisations such as PiXL and Edison to develop this nationally. 

We share the ambition that every child will transfer from Gusford having been expertly taught, as well as confident and skilled to maximise the benefits and opportunities offered in their next stage in learning in secondary education. 

As the school is a member of a Trust, it is part of a wider network of supportive schools. The Ipswich Hub and ALT schools from the Lowestoft and Cambridgeshire hubs, engage in regular school-to-school improvement networks, leadership development and CPD opportunities. Being part of the Trust enables our school to work collaboratively, not only with the Trust, to improve the outcomes for all our children, but in partnership with parents / carers and the local community.
