Welcome to the Westfield Infant School website! I hope you will find the information useful and will be able to see from your visit the wonderful facilities for learning we are able to offer.
We like to work closely with parents/carers, and we recognise it is important that you choose a school where you feel confident your child will be cared for, valued and, most importantly, will be happy. Your child will then be ready to learn.
