About Wendover Church of England Junior School
Wendover Church of England Junior School’s headline KS2 results sit slightly below the Buckinghamshire local authority average, with 60% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 64%. This places the school in the bottom half of primary schools in the county, ranked 89th out of 137. The school’s reading and maths average scores of 106 and 104 respectively are solid, but the proportion of pupils achieving the higher standard in all three subjects is just 6%, which is notably low. The school has a Church of England character and is led by headteacher Gareth Kynaston. It is a junior school, taking children from age 7 to 11, and is currently operating close to capacity with 352 pupils against a maximum of 360. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals is 12.5%, which is around the national average for primary schools.
