About this school
Millom Infant School will be a primary academy in Millom. It teaches children aged 4 to 7.
Ofsted will inspect it once it opens.
Ofsted judgement
Millom Infant School has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in September 2026, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was Millom Infant School. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: Millom Infant School

Results reflect each school's cohort as much as its teaching, and free school meals share is context, not a judgement. Small gaps between neighbouring schools are rarely meaningful on their own.
