Infant school

Ages 2–7

Key Stage 2 performance

St Anne Line Catholic Infant School is an infant school for pupils aged 2–7. 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 2025 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

About St Anne Line Catholic Infant School

St Anne Line Catholic Infant School is a primary school in Basildon, Essex, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Roman Catholic religious character. Around 178 pupils aged 2 to 7 attend the school.

Competition for places is real here - 88% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (66 first choices for 60 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2025 lived 0.21 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. There are about 17.6 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 11% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. St Anne Line Catholic 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.
