About Belvedere Infant School

Belvedere Infant School was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, a significant improvement from its previous rating of Requires Improvement. The school has held a Good rating across both its graded inspection and a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2023, which confirmed the school remains Good. For a school that takes children from age 3 to 7, the most telling academic metric is the early years provision, which was also judged Good by inspectors. While the school does not publish Key Stage 2 SATs results — as its pupils move on to junior school before that stage — the Ofsted report highlights strong leadership and management, also rated Good. The school’s improvement journey is backed by strong parent confidence: 99% of respondents to the Parent View survey would recommend the school, and 99% agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy there.
