About All Saints CofE Primary School and Nursery, Nuneaton

All Saints CofE Primary School and Nursery in Nuneaton is a Church of England state primary for children aged 3 to 11, currently educating 240 pupils against a capacity of 275. The school serves a community with a notably high level of disadvantage: 48.3% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. Demand for places is strong — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 58 applications for 28 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.07 to one, with 21 first-preference offers made. This suggests a school that is popular locally despite serving a challenging demographic. The headteacher is Lisa Harrison, and the school includes a nursery provision, making it a natural choice for families seeking continuity from early years through to the end of Key Stage 2.

Academically, the school's most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2025 judged it Good overall, with an Outstanding rating for early years provision. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 52% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Warwickshire local authority average of 62%. The school's average scores in reading (104) and maths (103) were both slightly above the national benchmark of 100. However, the proportion reaching the higher standard in all three subjects was just 7%, and the school ranks 18th out of 25 primary schools in the Nuneaton and Bedworth local area, placing it in the bottom 50% nationally. Progress scores are not available in the data, so it is difficult to assess how much value the school adds relative to its intake.

The school offers a solid range of facilities including a sports hall, playing fields, music rooms, a chapel, and a Forest School. Sports provision covers athletics, football, swimming and gymnastics, while clubs include coding, chess, eco club and choir. SEND support is available for moderate and severe learning difficulties, speech and language needs, social and emotional mental health, and autistic spectrum disorder. Parent View responses from 14 families in the 2024/25 period were broadly positive: 79% would recommend the school, and 86% agreed or strongly agreed their child is happy and feels safe. However, 21% disagreed that the school has high expectations for their child, and 14% disagreed that concerns are dealt with properly. This is a school that suits families who value a strong community feel and inclusive SEND provision, but who may want to keep a close eye on academic outcomes and communication.
