About Hyde Heath Infant School

Hyde Heath Infant School was rated Good overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a change from its previous Outstanding rating in 2012. The inspection report gives a nuanced picture: personal development and behaviour and attitudes were both judged Outstanding, while quality of education, early years provision, and leadership and management were all rated Good. With just 55 pupils on roll against a capacity of 69, the school is small and oversubscribed — 57 families applied for 23 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, and only 18 first-preference offers were made, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.48. That level of demand suggests local parents see real value here, and the Outstanding marks for behaviour and personal development hint at the kind of calm, purposeful atmosphere inspectors observed.
