About SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary Academy & Nursery

Parents at SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary Academy & Nursery are overwhelmingly positive about the school. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, every single parent who responded said they would recommend the school to another parent. The feedback is consistently strong across the board: 90% of parents strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 95% strongly agreed that their child feels safe. Behaviour is another standout area, with 80% strongly agreeing that the school ensures pupils are well behaved. The school is clearly popular locally, too. For the 2025/26 academic year, it received 58 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.93. All 30 first-preference applicants were offered a place, but the numbers show that demand significantly outstrips supply, so getting a place is far from guaranteed.
