Jordans School
About Jordans School
Jordans School is a small state primary in Buckinghamshire that serves children aged 4 to 7, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated it Good overall, with an Outstanding mark for early years provision. That early years rating is a notable strength, especially when you consider that only 10 out of 184 primary schools in the local authority achieved an Outstanding overall rating in their most recent inspection. The school’s local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment sits at 64, but because Jordans is an infant school (Reception to Year 2), its pupils don’t sit KS2 SATs, so direct comparison isn’t possible. What is clear, however, is that the school is heavily oversubscribed: for 22 places in the 2025/26 intake, it received 102 applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4.64, with only 12 first-preference offers made. That level of demand suggests local parents see real value here, even without headline exam data to lean on.
