Little Chalfont Primary School
Amersham, HP6 6SX · Buckinghamshire · primary school
2nd of 142 primary schools in Buckinghamshire we can score, 184 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 1,328 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.0/10 among them, against 9.0/10 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 | 78.0 · 84 | 62% | 5.17 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 34.0 · 99 | 38% | 3.82 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 78.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 34.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.0 out of 10 among them, against 9.0 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Chess Club, Samurai Kickboxing, Kudos Athletics, Premier Education Cricket, Computer Xplorers, Cheerleading, and Mini Tennis. Sports include Premier Education WEDS and FRI Football, Gymnastics, Netball, Dance, and Cross country. Trips visit the Seaside, Chiltern Open Air Museum, Roald Dahl Museum, London Eye, and Waddesdon Manor. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 239 pupils in a capacity of 244, leaving 5 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for the remaining 5 places? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the numerous after-school activities scheduled to avoid conflict with the after-school club?
