Great Wilbraham Church of England Primary Academy is a friendly village school set in an attractive rural village about 4 miles east of Cambridge. Our school is committed to providing an excellent standard of education with a strong caring Christian ethos.

We are constantly striving to provide a school environment which values the achievements of all our children and fosters the development of secure relationships promoting self-esteem, tolerance and concern for others.

The school was re-housed in a new building in 1995 and has since been extended several times, giving us excellent facilities. It is surrounded by extensive grounds providing a rich resource to enhance the curriculum.

In September 2023 we joined the newly formed ACT Multi Academy Trust. The ACT Multi Academy Trust is a connected learning community. We share a culture of collaboration. Our team of highly skilled staff work passionately to provide the best learning opportunities through a meaningful curriculum, bespoke to each school, where children and adults acquire the knowledge, skills and positive attitudes to prepare and strengthen them for their role in society: today, tomorrow and in the future. Rather than just looking at pupil outcomes and results whilst at school, we envisage the future lives of our children, as engineers, designers, artists and teachers. We strive for them to flourish in the world.
