About Austrey CofE Primary School

Austrey CofE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in Warwickshire, serving just 89 pupils from ages 4 to 11. It sits within the North Warwickshire local authority, where it ranks 3rd out of 21 primary schools — placing it comfortably in the top tier locally. Its closest peers at the top of the table are Mappleborough Green CofE Primary School and St Mary's Catholic Primary School, both with perfect ranking scores, followed by Barford St Peter's CofE Primary School. For families weighing up options in this corner of the West Midlands, Austrey holds its own against strong competition. The school is oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 32 applications for just 12 places, with 11 of those offers going to first-preference families. That level of demand suggests a school that local parents are actively choosing, and with a capacity of 105, it’s running close to full.
