Before you apply

Four things worth knowing in Suffolk

  1. Half or more are faith schools.

    112 of the 112 faith schools in Suffolk have a religious character. When they're full, they can put families of their faith first, so check each school's rules.

    Show schools with no religious character
  2. Check how old the Ofsted grade is.

    Some grades are many years old. Each school's page shows the date of its last inspection and what's changed since.

    Show Good or Outstanding
