Details of our Admission Policies are below.
Ss Peter & Paul Catholic Primary School provides a Catholic education for children between the ages of 4 and 11 years. Our admissions process is part of the Coventry LA co-ordinated scheme.
An application can be made for a place for a child at any time outside the admission round and the child will be admitted where there are available places. To apply for a place at Ss Peter & Paul Catholic Primary School, an application should be made via the local authority by completing the in-year admissions application which is available from https://www.coventry.gov.uk/school-admissions/primary-school-admissions/5. This is the same for Rising Five and In Year Applications.
As a Catholic school, parents will also need to complete a Supplementary Information Form in addition to the standard application form that is submitted to the local authority. Supplementary information forms can be obtained from the school on request by contacting admin.sspp@romeromac.com or 02476 615665 and must be returned directly to Ss Peter & Paul Catholic Primary School, Arkle Drive, Walsgrave, Coventry, CV2 2EF. If a Supplementary Information Form is not submitted directly to the school, this may affect the priority given to the application and could affect the likelihood of your child being offered a place.
The local authority will forward your application to the schools for consideration by the governors.
Where there are places available but more application than places, the published oversubscription criteria, as set out in the admission arrangements for 2023/2024, will be applied. The full admission arrangements are in the policy below or you can contact the school office to request a hard copy. Parents are advised to read the admission arrangements carefully before making their application.
If there are no places available, the local authority will notify you of this decision on behalf of the governors and the child will be added to the waiting list. Please see the admission arrangement for more details regarding waiting lists.
You will be advised of the outcome of your application in writing as soon as possible. Applicants must be informed of the outcome of their application with 15 school days of its receipt, but the aim is to notify applicants of the outcome of their application within 10 school days of its receipt.
You have the right to appeal to an independent appeal panel if your application is unsuccessful.
If you have any questions in relation to in-year admission, please contact the school office at admin.sspp@romeromac.com or 02476 615665. You may also wish to discuss in-year applications with the local authority on 02476 975445.
