Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School
About Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School
Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection, a significant improvement from its previous rating of Requires Improvement. The school, which serves children aged 4 to 7 in the New Forest, has held onto that Good rating through an ungraded inspection in 2022, where inspectors confirmed the school remains Good. With just 66 pupils on roll against a capacity of 90, it is a small, close-knit infant school. The most telling academic metric for a school this young is its Key Stage 2 results, and here the local authority average for pupils reaching the expected standard is 61 percent. While the school’s own KS2 data is not provided in this profile, its Ofsted report notes strong leadership and management, both rated Good, and the school’s early years provision was previously graded as Requires Improvement in 2010, though that judgement is now over a decade old.
