About Chapel Street Community Primary School

Of the 26 parents who responded to Ofsted's Parent View survey between September 2024 and September 2025, 77% said they would recommend Chapel Street Community Primary School to other parents. That's a solid majority, though it's worth noting that 23% said they would not. The school is clearly popular in the area: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 134 applications for 66 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.03. Of those, 60 were first-preference applications, and 60 first-preference offers were made, meaning every family who put it first got a place. On safety, 96% of parents either agreed or strongly agreed that their child feels safe at the school, and 96% also felt their child is happy there. However, the picture is more mixed on communication: only 58% agreed the school lets them know how their child is doing, and 43% disagreed that the school makes them aware of what their child will learn.
