As there are no schools in Little Saxham, youngsters living in the village have to travel either to Bury St Edmunds, or to other nearby villages. The following list shows Primary (age 5 to 9), Middle (9 to 13) and Upper (13 to 18) schools in the neighbourhood. The first-named school in each section is the official school for the catchment area.
By clicking on the link in the right-hand column, you can read the most recent Ofsted report for that school (the date is when the most recent inspection took place). You will need to have Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, as these files are in pdf format.
There is also a list of local Independent schools. Their reports are by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, not Ofsted.
