About Trinity Academy St Peter's

Trinity Academy St Peter's is a Church of England primary in Calderdale that currently serves 99 pupils against a capacity of 195, meaning it is running at just over half its potential size. The school's intake reflects a significantly higher-than-average level of disadvantage: 45.5 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with a national primary average of around 24 per cent. Despite this, the school is oversubscribed for its 2025/26 reception intake, receiving 17 applications for 11 places and offering all 11 first-preference applicants a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.55 suggests a local demand that outstrips supply, even with spare capacity elsewhere in the building. The school is mixed, takes children from age 4 to 11, and includes nursery provision. Headteacher Mathew Brown leads a setting that has clearly rebuilt confidence since a difficult period, and the current numbers point to a school that families in the area are actively choosing.
