About Bounds Green Infant School
When you look at Bounds Green Infant School against the Haringey average for primary schools, the standout fact is that this is a school that has been judged Outstanding by Ofsted in its most recent inspection, placing it among a minority of schools in the borough. Haringey has 18 primary schools rated Outstanding out of a total of 63, so roughly 29% of local primaries hold that top grade. The school’s headteacher is Nadine Lewis, and it caters for children aged 3 to 7, with a nursery provision on site. With 318 pupils on roll against a capacity of 330, the school is nearly full, and it is clearly popular with local families.
