About Chorleywood Primary School

Chorleywood Primary School is a state primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, and it is currently running above its official capacity. With 224 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is clearly in demand, and the admissions data for the 2025/26 intake confirms that. The school received 97 total applications for just 25 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3. 88, and 21 of those offers went to first-preference families. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 8%, which is below the national average and suggests a relatively affluent intake. The school has no religious character and no nursery provision, so children join in Reception. The headteacher is Tracy Whitehill, and the school sits within the Three Rivers borough of Hertfordshire, a local authority where 45 out of 401 primary schools hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted.
