About Prestwood Infant School

Prestwood Infant School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, with every assessed category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — all receiving a Good rating. This represents a shift from its previous inspection in 2010, when the school was judged Outstanding overall, with Outstanding marks for early years provision, leadership and management, and overall effectiveness. While the school no longer holds that top grade, the inspection report notes that standards remain solid across the board. The most informative exam metric for this age range is the local authority’s Key Stage 2 average, which sits at 64 per cent of pupils meeting the expected standard. However, as an infant school catering for children aged 2 to 7, Prestwood does not yet have its own published KS2 results, so parents will need to look ahead to the junior school their child moves on to for that data.
