Stoughton Infant School
About Stoughton Infant School
Stoughton Infant School is clearly a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 211 applications for just 88 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 2. 4. Of those applicants, 98 put Stoughton as their first preference, and 80 of those families were offered a place. That level of demand suggests a strong reputation in the community, though it does mean securing a spot is competitive. The school is a state primary for children aged 3 to 7, with a nursery provision on site, and it serves the Guildford area in Surrey. Headteacher Sarah Carrington leads a school of 301 pupils, which is slightly above its official capacity of 270. While the school doesn't publish a parent-view survey, the oversubscription figures alone signal that many local parents see it as a strong option for their children's early years.
