Emscote Infant School
About Emscote Infant School
Emscote Infant School, a state primary in Warwick for children aged 4 to 7, stands out for its strong local demand, but its headline academic metrics are not directly comparable to the Warwickshire LA average for primary schools. The LA average KS2 score of 62 applies to pupils at the end of Key Stage 2, typically age 11, whereas Emscote only covers infants up to Year 2, meaning its pupils do not sit KS2 SATs. What the data does reveal is a school that is significantly oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, 121 families applied for just 44 places, with 42 of those offers going to first-preference applicants. That works out at 2.75 applicants per place, a clear signal that local parents rate the school highly, even if the usual comparative metrics aren't available for this age group.
