Schools in Felixstowe

Where the estuaries of the Orwell and the Deben meet the North Sea on the Suffolk coast, Felixstowe has grown from a Victorian seaside resort into a working port town of around 24,000 people. The port is Britain's busiest for container traffic.

Felixstowe Town Centre and the Walton neighbourhood to the north are widely regarded as the most sought-after pockets for primary catchments in the town, with a compact school offer making places keenly contested. Kingsfleet, Maybush, and the inland village of Trimley St Martin extend the residential spread across the peninsula, all within reach of Ipswich via the Felixstowe Branch Line.
