About Sladefield Infant School

Sladefield Infant School is a state primary for children aged 4 to 7, located in the Birmingham local authority. Among the 292 primary schools in the borough, it sits outside the top tier of 28 schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted. Its most recent inspection, in 2023, judged the school Good overall, with all categories — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — all rated Good. This marks a change from its previous inspection in 2009, when it was rated Outstanding across the board. The school’s closest Outstanding-rated peer is Shaw Hill Primary School, 1.1 kilometres away. The top-performing schools in the LA, according to ranking scores, are Little Sutton Primary School (95), Cromwell Junior and Infant School (93), and Lift Lea Forest (93). Sladefield does not appear among these top peers, but its Good rating places it in the solid middle of Birmingham’s primary landscape.
