About Anton Infant School

Anton Infant School is a state primary in Test Valley, Hampshire, currently teaching 166 pupils against a capacity of 180, so it is running close to full but with a small amount of headroom. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 12 per cent, which is worth noting against the national primary average of around 23 per cent, suggesting the school serves a less disadvantaged intake than many. Demand is clearly strong: for the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 120 applications for 58 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2. 07, and made 49 offers to first-preference families. That level of competition indicates a popular local option, particularly for parents seeking a two-year infant phase before children move on to junior school. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and led by headteacher Laura Skeates, who took over at some point before the most recent inspection.
