Chalfont St Peter CofE Academy
About Chalfont St Peter CofE Academy
Chalfont St Peter CofE Academy’s headline KS2 metric – the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths – sits at 67%, which is three percentage points above the Buckinghamshire local authority average of 64%. That’s a modest but meaningful edge, placing the school 61st out of 137 primaries in the county, or around the 45th percentile. It’s not a standout performer at the very top of the table, but it’s comfortably above the middle of the pack, and for a junior school taking children from age 7 to 11, that consistency matters. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2025, rated it Good overall, with behaviour and attitudes judged Outstanding – a strong signal for parents worried about classroom culture. The previous graded inspection in 2019 also awarded Good, though the school had been rated Outstanding in 2009. The 2025 ungraded inspection noted some aspects were not as strong, but the core judgement held.
