Chingford CofE Primary School
London, E4 7EY · Waltham Forest · primary school
42nd of 49 primary schools in Waltham Forest we can score, 51 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,306 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.5/10 among them, against 5.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 58.0 · 35 | 62% | 2.13 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 38% | 3.21 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 58.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 15.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.5 out of 10 among them, against 5.3 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils access Forest School, Art Therapy, and Dance workshops. The school has neither a breakfast club nor an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 406 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 14 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific support is available for the 42% who did not reach the expected standard? How does the Forest School curriculum integrate with the core subjects?
