About Queenswell Infant & Nursery School

Queenswell Infant & Nursery School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained consistently across both its current and previous inspections. The school serves children aged 3 to 7 in the London borough of Barnet, and its academic story is best understood through its early years and Key Stage 1 performance, given that pupils leave before reaching Key Stage 2 SATs. The Ofsted report rated every category as Good, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision. This uniform rating suggests a school that delivers reliably across all areas, without standout weaknesses. For a primary school that only goes up to Year 2, the most informative metric is the early years provision grade, which was also Good. Parents considering Queenswell should note that the school does not have published Key Stage 2 results, as its pupils transfer to a junior school at age seven, so the focus is squarely on the foundation years.
