About St Peter's Church of England Academy
St Peter's Church of England Academy is a state primary for pupils aged 7 to 11 in the North Northamptonshire local authority, where it ranks 22nd out of 90 primary schools. That places it comfortably in the top quarter of schools in the area, though it sits behind the three top-performing peers in the authority: Gretton Primary Academy, Stanion Church of England (Aided) Primary School, and Broughton Primary School. The school is rated Good by Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2015 and an ungraded inspection in 2024 confirmed it remains Good. Leadership and management were also judged Good. This represents a clear improvement from the school's previous inspection in 2013, when it was rated Requires Improvement. With 219 pupils on roll against a capacity of 240, the school is not oversubscribed, and 26% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is above the national average.
