Infant school

Ages 4–7

Key Stage 2 performance

Stamshaw Infant Academy 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 Stamshaw Infant Academy

Stamshaw Infant Academy is a primary school in Portsmouth, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 248 pupils aged 4 to 7 attend the school.

Stamshaw Infant Academy was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 77 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 6.0%. There are about 20.3 pupils per teacher. Stamshaw Infant Academy 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.
