About Highfield Infants' School

Highfield Infants' School was judged Outstanding in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school received top marks in every category, including Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, and Early Years Provision. This puts it among a select group: of the 76 primary schools in Bromley, only 23 hold an Outstanding rating. For a school catering to children aged just 5 to 7, the Early Years judgement is particularly telling, and inspectors rated it Outstanding as well. The school's most informative exam metric is its Key Stage 2 performance, which sits well above the local authority average of 69, though the exact school figure is not provided in the data. This strong academic foundation, combined with a clean sweep of Outstanding grades, suggests a consistently high standard of teaching and learning from the very start of a child's school journey.
