About Trafalgar Infant School

Trafalgar Infant School, a state primary for children aged 5 to 7 in Richmond upon Thames, currently holds a Good Ofsted rating, a step down from the Outstanding it achieved in its previous inspection. While the school’s own headline metrics are solid, they sit against a local authority average Key Stage 2 score of 76, which is a useful benchmark for the area. The school’s most recent inspection in 2023 awarded Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership, and early years provision — all graded 2 on the Ofsted scale. This consistency is reassuring, though it does place Trafalgar Infant School slightly behind the 16 Outstanding primary schools in the borough, the nearest of which is Twickenham Primary Academy just 0.8 kilometres away. For a small infant school with 138 pupils on roll against a capacity of 180, the Good rating reflects a stable, well-led environment, but parents comparing options in this high-performing London borough will note it is not among the very top tier.
