Nevill Road Infant School
About Nevill Road Infant School
Nevill Road Infant School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a rating it has held consistently across both its recent inspections. The school serves children from age 2 to 7 in Stockport, and its academic story is best told through the Early Years Foundation Stage outcomes, where Ofsted rated provision Good in the 2023 inspection, up from a Requires Improvement in the previous 2011 inspection. This improvement in early years is significant for a school that takes children from nursery through to the end of Key Stage 1. With 249 pupils on roll against a capacity of 320, the school is not at full capacity, but it is heavily oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, 150 families applied for 60 places, with 57 of the 63 first-preference families receiving offers. That oversubscription ratio of 2.5 to 1 suggests strong local demand.
