About Charter Academy

Charter Academy in Coventry is a state primary school that is significantly oversubscribed, a clear signal of its local demand. With 350 pupils on roll against a capacity of 315, the school is operating above its official limit. Its intake is notably diverse in terms of disadvantage: 47.3% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average for primary schools. For the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 54 applications for just 32 places, with 31 of those offers going to first-preference families. This gives an oversubscription ratio of 1.69, meaning nearly two families compete for every place. The school is non-religious and co-educational, serving children from age 2 through to 11, and it also offers nursery provision. Headteacher Louise Stewart leads a school that, based on its popularity, clearly meets a need in the local community.
