About Kempshott Infant School

Kempshott Infant School sits in a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 score for primary schools is 61, but as an infant school taking children only up to age 7, it doesn't publish KS2 results. Instead, its most reliable headline metric is its Ofsted rating, which is Good across the board — a solid outcome in a Hampshire where only 33 out of 425 primary schools hold an Outstanding grade. The school's most recent graded inspection in 2022 found it Good for overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. That's a step down from its previous inspection in 2007, when it was rated Outstanding, but the current judgement reflects a school that is performing well and consistently. Compared with the LA average for primary schools, Kempshott is in line with the majority of Hampshire primaries, which are Good, and it avoids the weaker ratings that affect a minority of schools in the area.
