About St Mildred's Primary Infant School

St Mildred's Primary Infant School sits within the Kent local authority, one of 459 primary schools in the county. It is a state-funded, mixed-gender infant school for children aged 4 to 7, with no religious character. Among Kent’s top-performing primary peers, the school is outranked by Stelling Minnis Church of England Primary School, Leigh Academy Dartford, and Temple Ewell Church of England Primary School. However, it holds a strong local position: its most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in 2021, confirmed the school remains Outstanding, a rating first awarded in its 2016 graded inspection. That puts it among just 54 Outstanding primaries in Kent. Its nearest Outstanding neighbour is Upton Junior School, just 0. 3 km away. The school is led by headteacher James Williams and has 268 pupils on roll, very close to its capacity of 270. With 17. 9% of pupils eligible for free school meals, the school serves a community with above-average economic need for the area.
