About St Peter's Church of England Primary School

St Peter's Church of England Primary School sits within the Buckinghamshire local authority, a county with a large number of primary schools. Among the 184 state primary schools in the area, St Peter's ranks 35th, placing it comfortably in the top quarter. The top-performing peers in the same authority include Ickford School, Frieth Church of England Combined School, and Elangeni School, which set a high benchmark locally. The school itself is a mixed, state-funded primary with a Church of England character, catering for children aged 2 to 11. It has a nursery provision and a total of 259 pupils on roll, just shy of its 271 capacity. The headteacher is Tanya Morris. The school is notably oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 85 applications for 30 places, with 41 of those as first preferences, resulting in an oversubscription ratio of 2.83. This level of demand suggests strong local reputation, though the school's most recent graded Ofsted inspection, in 2016, rated it Good overall, with Good marks for leadership, management, and early years provision.
