Infant school

Ages 5–7

Key Stage 2 performance

Barnett Wood Infant School is an infant school for pupils aged 5–7. 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.

Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

About Barnett Wood Infant School

Barnett Wood Infant School is a primary school in Ashtead, Surrey, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 150 pupils aged 5 to 7 attend the school.

Barnett Wood Infant School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 48 families who put it first were offered a place. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 1.99 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.5%. There are about 16.7 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 5% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Barnett Wood 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.
