Ages 4–7

Key Stage 2 performance

Wootey Infant School is an infant school for pupils aged 4–7. Pupils move on to a separate junior or middle school before Year 6, so the school does not enter pupils for the Key Stage 2 SATs and has no KS2 results to publish.

This applies to every infant school in England — it does not mean data is missing. Ofsted judgements and school information are shown below.

About Wootey Infant School

Wootey Infant School is a primary school in Alton, Hampshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 121 pupils aged 4 to 7 attend the school.

Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Wootey Infant School their first choice was offered one of its 38 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 7.2%. There are about 17.8 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 43% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Wootey Infant School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
