Brook Infant School and Nursery
About Brook Infant School and Nursery
Brook Infant School and Nursery earned a Good rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in June 2024, a grade it has held consistently across both its recent inspections. The school’s overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision were all rated Good, with no outstanding or inadequate judgments in any category. For a primary school serving children from age 2 to 7, the most telling academic metric is the local authority’s average Key Stage 2 score, which sits at 56 for West Sussex. While Brook Infant School does not publish its own KS2 results — likely because its pupils move on to junior school before sitting those tests — the school’s consistent Good rating across all Ofsted domains suggests solid foundations in early literacy and numeracy. The school’s early years provision, specifically rated Good, indicates that children get a strong start in Nursery and Reception.
