Norton Infant School
About Norton Infant School
Norton Infant School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 68 applications for just 57 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.19. Every one of those 57 first-preference applicants was offered a place, which suggests that for most families who put it top of their list, it works out. The school is a state primary for children aged 3 to 7, located in Doncaster, and led by headteacher Andrea Tunney. With 206 pupils on roll against a capacity of 232, there is a little room to grow, but the oversubscription figures indicate it is already a sought-after option for the early years.
