St Patrick's Catholic Primary School
About St Patrick's Catholic Primary School
St Patrick's Catholic Primary School is a state-funded, mixed Roman Catholic primary in Coventry, serving children aged 3 to 11. It sits within the Coventry local authority, where it ranks 35th out of 80 primary schools based on the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. That places it just inside the bottom half of the LA, though it is worth noting that the top-performing peers in the area — St John Vianney Catholic Primary, Manor Park Primary and Finham Primary — all score higher on the same metric. The school is led by headteacher Danielle Kingham and has 232 pupils on roll, exceeding its official capacity of 210. It also offers nursery provision. In its most recent Ofsted inspection, carried out in 2021, the school was rated Good overall, a clear improvement from its previous rating of Requires Improvement in 2018.
