About Christ Church Chorleywood CofE School

Christ Church Chorleywood CofE School earned an Outstanding rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in 2022, with every assessed category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — all judged Outstanding. That consistency is rare, and it backs up the school’s strongest exam metric: 77% of its Year 6 pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits well above the Hertfordshire local authority average of 64%, placing the school 7th out of 25 primary schools in the Three Rivers district and in the top 25% nationally. The previous inspection, back in 2007, also rated the school Outstanding overall, so this is a school with a sustained track record rather than a one-off result.
