A warm welcome to

Fawcett Primary School

Fawcett Primary School and Nursery is a well-established school in the heart of Trumpington.  The school is named in honour of Henry Fawcett, the distinguished Victorian academic and politician. 

The school was built to meet the need of families moving into the new post-war housing in the area, with a separate junior school (opened in 1949) and infant school (opened in 1950). The infant and junior schools were amalgamated in 1989.
