About Newport Infant School and Nursery

Newport Infant School and Nursery is clearly popular with local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 82 applications for 58 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.41, meaning there were roughly 1.4 applicants for every spot. Of those 82 applications, 51 were first-preference choices, and all 51 of those families received an offer. That level of demand suggests a strong reputation among parents in Telford and Wrekin, even though the school does not publish a separate parent recommendation percentage. The school is a state-funded, mixed-gender primary for children aged 2 to 7, with a nursery on site. It has a capacity of 270 pupils and currently has 246 enrolled, so there is some headroom, but the oversubscription figures show that getting a place is competitive, especially for first-preference applicants.
