About Garrick Green Infant School

Garrick Green Infant School sits within Norfolk’s Broadland borough as a state-funded primary for children aged 4 to 7, with a mixed intake and no religious affiliation. In the local authority’s landscape of 344 primary schools, it holds a Good Ofsted rating, though the nearest school with an Outstanding grade, White Woman Lane Junior School, is just 0.9 km away. Among its top-performing peers in Norfolk, Ditchingham Church of England Primary Academy and Surlingham Primary School both share a perfect ranking score of 100, while Stalham Academy follows at 89. Garrick Green itself is a relatively small school, with 143 pupils against a capacity of 180, and it is notably oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, 100 applications were received for just 29 places, with 28 of those going to first-preference families. This level of demand suggests strong local confidence in the school, even if it doesn’t top the county’s league tables.
