About Chalfont St Peter Infant School

If you’re looking for a school where parents are genuinely happy, the numbers at Chalfont St Peter Infant School are hard to ignore. In the most recent Parent View survey, every single respondent said they would recommend the school to other parents — a perfect 100% yes vote. That’s based on 75 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, so it’s a solid, recent signal. Dig into the individual questions and the picture stays just as strong: 95% of parents strongly agreed their child is happy here, 93% strongly agreed their child feels safe, and 96% strongly agreed the school keeps them informed about what their child will learn. The school is also heavily oversubscribed. For the 2025/26 intake, there were 154 applications for 59 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.61. Of those, 73 families put it as their first preference, and 55 first-preference offers were made. That level of demand tells you local families see it as a school worth fighting for.
