Yatton Infant School
About Yatton Infant School
Yatton Infant School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 96 applications for 66 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 45. Of those applications, 58 were first-preference choices, and all 58 were offered places, meaning every family who put Yatton first was successful. This level of demand suggests strong word-of-mouth approval in the community, though the school does not publish a formal parent satisfaction survey percentage. With a capacity of 180 and currently 168 pupils on roll, the school is running close to full, which further underscores its local standing. The headteacher, Amy Townsend, leads a mixed-gender, non-religious primary for children aged 4 to 7, and the school is situated in the North Somerset local authority area.
