Saltergate Infant School
About Saltergate Infant School
Saltergate Infant School, a state primary in North Yorkshire for children aged 2 to 7, sits in a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 score sits at 60. However, because this school only covers infants up to Year 2, it does not participate in KS2 SATs, meaning its academic performance cannot be directly compared against that LA average in the usual way. What stands out instead is its consistent, solid Ofsted record. In its most recent ungraded inspection in 2024, the school was judged to have 'remained Good', matching the 'Good' rating it has held across both its graded inspections. The most recent graded inspection, in 2015, awarded a 'Good' for overall effectiveness, leadership and management, and early years provision. This stability is notable in a local authority where only 16 out of 292 primary schools hold an 'Outstanding' rating, and the nearest outstanding school, Western Primary School, is two kilometres away.
