About Longford Park Primary School

Longford Park Primary School in Coventry is a mixed state primary for ages 3 to 11, currently running above its official capacity with 226 pupils against 210 places. That overspill is a practical signal of local demand, and the school’s admission data for 2025/26 backs it up: 75 applications for 30 total places, with 32 first-preference applications and 30 first-preference offers. The oversubscription ratio sits at 2.5, meaning more than two families applied for every spot. The pupil body is notably diverse in economic terms — 32.5 per cent of children are eligible for free school meals, well above the national primary average of around 24 per cent. That figure places the school in a context where it serves a community with above-average disadvantage, something worth weighing alongside its academic results and pastoral support.
