About All Souls' Catholic Primary School

If you’re a parent weighing up All Souls’ Catholic Primary School, the early signals are strong. In its most recent ungraded Ofsted inspection in 2024, the school was confirmed to have maintained its Good rating, a significant improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2013 when it was judged to require improvement. That upward trajectory is backed by clear parent demand: for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 81 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.7. Of those, 40 were first-preference applications, and all 30 offers went to first-preference families. That level of competition suggests a school that local parents actively want, and with a capacity of 210 and 237 pupils currently on roll, it’s already running slightly over its official number. The school’s Roman Catholic character will naturally appeal to practising Catholic families, but the oversubscription data indicates broader appeal across the Coventry area.
