About St Peter's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School

St Peter's Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School in Three Rivers is a state primary for children aged 2 to 11, currently home to 247 pupils against a capacity of 270. That leaves a little breathing room, but the demand tells a different story: for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 77 applications for just 30 places, with 36 families putting it as their first preference. That works out to an oversubscription ratio of 2.57, meaning nearly three children applied for every spot. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals sits at 9.7%, which is below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively affluent intake. The school is a Church of England voluntary aided school, so faith-based admissions criteria will play a role in who gets those 30 places. Headteacher Michael Conley leads a mixed-gender school that also offers nursery provision, making it a popular choice for families looking to stay put from early years right through to Year 6.
