About Corpus Christi RC Primary School

Corpus Christi RC Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 48 applications for just 22 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.18. All 21 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that for those who put it top of their list, the school is a realistic option. The school is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, with a nursery provision on site. It currently has 254 pupils on roll, slightly above its official capacity of 240. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 50.2%, which is notably high and reflects the school’s role within its community. The headteacher is Carolyn Baker, and the school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in April 2024 confirmed it remains Good, an improvement from a Requires Improvement rating in its previous graded inspection back in 2012.
