St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School provides a Catholic education for children between the ages of 4 and 11 years.
To apply for a place at St Gregory’s, you must apply via the Admissions Team at Coventry City Council (02476 975445). This is the same for Rising Five and In Year Applications. To apply online click here.
The Local Governing Body will allocate the places and details on the policy are included in the links below.
In-Year Applications
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. An application should be made via the local authority by completing the in-year admissions application form which is available from Primary School Admissions – Coventry City Council.
The local authority will forward your application to the school for consideration by the governors.
Where there are places available but more applications than places, the published oversubscription criteria, as set out in the admission arrangements for 2025/2026, will be applied. The full admission arrangements can be accessed from Admission Arrangements 2025/2026 or by contacting 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 arrangements 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 within 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 admissions please contact the School Office (024 76445900). You may also wish to discuss in-year applications with the local authority (024 76975445)
