About Park Hill Primary School

Park Hill Primary School sits below the Coventry average for primary schools when it comes to the key measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. The school's figure of 52% is six percentage points lower than the local authority average of 58%, placing it 63rd out of 85 primary schools in Coventry. That ranking puts it in the bottom half of schools in the area, though it is worth noting that the school's overall Ofsted rating remains Good, with leadership and management judged Outstanding in its most recent ungraded inspection in 2023. The school has held a Good rating across both its recent inspections, with the previous graded inspection in 2014 also awarding Good overall. The headteacher, Paul Griffin, leads a school of 436 pupils, which is slightly below its capacity of 472.
