About Chapel End Infant School and Early Years Centre

Chapel End Infant School and Early Years Centre, a state primary in Waltham Forest, holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school’s most recent graded inspection, in 2011, rated its overall effectiveness as Good, and an ungraded inspection in 2022 confirmed that the school remains Good. For a school catering to children aged 2 to 7, the most informative exam metric is the local authority’s average Key Stage 2 score, which stands at 74. While Chapel End does not publish its own KS2 results — likely because its pupils move on to junior school before sitting those tests — the local context shows that Waltham Forest has 15 outstanding primary schools out of 52, with the nearest outstanding option, Selwyn Primary School, just one kilometre away. This suggests that while Chapel End is solidly Good, families prioritising an outstanding rating have a nearby alternative.
