About Stivichall Primary School

Stivichall Primary School sits comfortably above the Coventry average for its key stage 2 results, with 73% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to a local authority average of 58%. That fifteen-point gap places the school seventh out of 80 primary schools in Coventry, putting it in the top 25% nationally. The school is also oversubscribed by a ratio of 3.12 to one, with 234 applications for 75 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, and 74 of those 97 first-preference families securing a spot. This level of demand suggests local parents recognise the school’s consistent performance, even if it doesn’t hold the top-tier Outstanding rating that only two other primaries in Coventry currently have.
