Wroughton Infant Academy
About Wroughton Infant Academy
Wroughton Infant Academy serves children from age 3 to 7 in Great Yarmouth, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025 rated it Good across every category, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision. That’s a solid, consistent result, but the school’s real story lies in its local context. Norfolk’s average Key Stage 2 score sits at 52, and while Wroughton doesn’t publish its own KS2 results (it’s an infant school, so pupils leave before that benchmark), the school’s intake data tells you something about the challenge it faces. Over a third of its 195 pupils — 36. 4 per cent — are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. That makes its Good rating more notable, because the school is achieving that standard with a cohort that statistically faces more barriers. It’s not outperforming the LA average in headline metrics, but it’s holding its own in a context where many similar schools would struggle.
