About Donnington Wood Infant School and Nursery Centre

Parents considering Donnington Wood Infant School and Nursery Centre will find a school that is clearly popular with local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 54 applications for just 33 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.64. Of those 54 applications, 32 were first-preference choices, and the school was able to offer places to all 32 of those first-preference families. This level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, though it also means that not every applicant will secure a place. The school is at full capacity with 180 pupils, so there is no slack in the system for late applicants. For parents of younger children, the nursery provision is a notable feature, offering a seamless start from age two through to Year 2.
