St. Helen's Primary School and Nursery

Striving for EXCELLENCE and EQUALITY through EQUITY and EMPOWERMENT

Dates of tours for Reception intake for September 2025 can be located on the school calendar, under the 'Information' tab, please select 'Term Dates and Diary'. Please email or call the office to book a place.

St. Helen's Primary School and Nursery is a wonderful 3 storey Georgian (1914) school set in the heart of Ipswich, a short walk from Christchurch Park and the main high street. Being a town school, we serve a diverse population and embrace the cultural heritage this provides. 

We are a two-form entry primary school, with 30 pupils in each class. We also have a nursery for children aged 3 and 4 offering all day options as well as morning or afternoon sessions. 

We are one of the original 3 schools that came together to form ASSET Education (previously IPAT), who believe that all Suffolk children deserve the best education we can provide.  

Our core value is Equity - we believe that everyone can thrive if they are given the support they need, when they need it.
