About Fulbridge Academy

Fulbridge Academy is a primary school in Peterborough, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 926 pupils aged 2 to 11 attend the school. The school holds an 'Outstanding' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 66% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. Results have held broadly steady on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it around the middle of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 5% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 91% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (132 first choices for 120 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 1.02 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 5.7%. There are about 23.4 pupils per teacher. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child.
