About Chacewater Community Primary School

Parents considering Chacewater Community Primary School will find strong signals of satisfaction from those already there. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering September 2024 to September 2025, every single one of the 28 respondents said they would recommend the school. That 100% recommendation rate is backed by very positive individual scores: 71% of parents strongly agreed their child is happy, and 79% strongly agreed their child feels safe. The school is clearly popular locally, too. For the 2025/26 intake, it received 59 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 97. Of those 59 applications, 26 were first-preference choices, and all 26 were offered a place. So while the school is oversubscribed, families who put it first stand a very good chance of getting in. The headteacher is David Hick, and the school operates as a mixed, state primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no religious character.
