About Christ Church School

Christ Church School in Camden is a Church of England primary that clearly appeals to local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 63 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.1, and all 28 first-preference applicants were offered a spot. That suggests a strong local reputation, even if the school isn't the most academically selective in the area. The school is led by headteacher Lee Duffy and currently has 173 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, so there is some room for growth. In its most recent ungraded Ofsted inspection in 2022, the school was judged to remain Good, a rating it has held consistently across its previous graded inspections. The school serves a diverse community, with 50% of pupils eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average.
