Welcome to Larkfields Infant School

At Larkfields Infant School, we believe the first years of education are the most important. They shape confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning. Every child deserves the very best start.

We are a nurturing, inclusive school where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn each day. Our smaller, specialist environment allows us to truly know every child as an individual, supporting their development both academically and emotionally.

As an infant school, everything we do is focused on children aged 4–7.
This means:

• Teaching tailored specifically to early development
• A calm, caring environment without the pressures of older pupils
• Strong relationships between staff, children, and families
• High levels of individual attention

We understand that every child is unique, and we provide meaningful, high-quality learning experiences that enable all children to thrive. We pride ourselves on being a fully inclusive school where every child belongs. Whether a child needs additional support, encouragement, or challenge, our experienced staff work closely with families to ensure every child feels confident, understood, and successful.

We know that choosing a school is about both now and the future. At Larkfields, we prepare children not just for Year 2, but for a confident and successful transition into Key Stage 2.

Our vision is simple:

At Larkfields Infant School, we create a warm and welcoming environment where everyone belongs and thrives.

We work in close partnership with parents and the wider community to build strong foundations for every child, academically, socially, and emotionally.

The best way to understand what makes Larkfields special is to visit us. We warmly invite you to come and experience our caring environment, meet our dedicated staff, and see our happy, engaged learners in action.
