About Little Chalfont Primary School

Little Chalfont Primary School stands out in Buckinghamshire for its exceptional performance, particularly when compared against the local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for Key Stage 2 attainment sits at 64, this school has achieved the highest possible Ofsted rating of Outstanding across every measurable category in its most recent inspection. The school is one of only ten Outstanding primaries in a local authority of 184 primary schools, placing it firmly among the top tier. Its oversubscription figures tell a similar story: with 81 applications for just 30 places, and 41 of those as first preferences, demand far outstrips supply. The school's 2. 7 oversubscription ratio reflects a reputation that clearly resonates with local families.
