About St Peter's CofE Primary School
St Peter's CofE Primary School is a state-funded, mixed Church of England primary in Horsham, within the West Sussex local authority. Among the 226 primary schools in the county, it sits just outside the very top tier, with local peers Barns Green Primary School and Heron Way Primary School both scoring 86 on the local ranking metric, and Aldingbourne Primary School close behind at 84. The school is led by headteacher Denise Maurice and caters for 369 pupils aged 4 to 11, operating below its full capacity of 420. 33. This level of demand suggests a strong local reputation, though the school has not yet reached the Outstanding rating held by only seven other primaries in the authority.
