About Little Marlow CofE School

Little Marlow CofE School is a tiny Church of England primary for children aged 4 to 7, and its academic picture is best understood by looking at what comes next. The school itself doesn't publish Key Stage 2 results because its pupils leave at age 7, before those tests are taken. However, the local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment across Buckinghamshire primary schools is 64, a benchmark that gives context to the school's feeder reputation. What stands out immediately is the sheer demand for these 6 reception places: the school received 53 applications for the 2025/26 intake, making it heavily oversubscribed with an oversubscription ratio of 8.83. That level of competition suggests local parents see this infant school as a strong foundation, even though its own headline metrics are limited by its age range.
