About Kings Furlong Infant School and Nursery
Kings Furlong Infant School and Nursery, a state primary for children aged 2 to 7 in Basingstoke, received a Requires Improvement rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in 2023. This marks a continuation of the same overall rating the school held in its previous 2019 inspection. The picture is nuanced, however, as the inspection report awarded Good grades in three of the five key areas: early years provision, personal development, and behaviour and attitudes. The areas needing improvement were quality of education and leadership and management, both judged as Requires Improvement. For a school that takes children from nursery through to the end of Key Stage 1, the early years provision being rated Good is a significant positive, as it sets the foundation for pupils' entire school experience. The school does not have Key Stage 2 data to compare against the local Hampshire average of 61% achieving the expected standard, as its pupils leave at age seven to move on to junior school.
