Hamstel Infant School and Nursery

Ofsted

–Standards maintained (2024) — Ungraded inspection — “Standards maintained” (no overall grade issued)

This school has not yet been inspected under the report-card system introduced in November 2025. When it is, this section will show a grade for each area — Ofsted says the new grades do not map onto the old ones, so we do not predict them.

Inspected 16 October 2024, published 21 November 2024. Read the full Ofsted report

England has three coexisting inspection systems — how we translate them into one signal.

Will my child get in?

Roughly one first choice per place — 1.04 first-choice applications per place (Sept 2026 entry)

First-choice demand varies year to year, and the school’s admission criteria — not demand — decide who is offered a place. Use this as a rough signal, never a prediction.
