About Earley St Peter's Church of England Primary School

Earley St Peter's Church of England Primary School posts a Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard score of 60%, which sits ten percentage points below the Wokingham local authority average of 70%. That gap is worth noting, but the school's progress scores are missing from the data, so it's hard to say whether pupils arrive below par or whether the school adds less value than its neighbours. What is clear is that the school is not among the LA's strongest performers on this headline metric — it ranks 29th out of 55 primary schools in Wokingham, placing it in the bottom half of the local league table. Its ranking percentile nationally is 56.8, meaning it sits just above the midpoint for all primaries in England. For context, the nearest outstanding school, Aldryngton Primary, is only 0.7 km away, so parents in the area have a highly-rated alternative within walking distance.
