Every child who put Park Hill Primary School first was offered a place in 2026, so no distance cut-off applied: living further away did not cost a place that year.

School overview

Park Hill Primary School is a primary school serving Coventry, classified by the DfE as a community school. It has 436 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 59% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 7.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it around the middle of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 8% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Park Hill Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 46 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.4%. There are about 20.5 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 11% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Park Hill Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
