Ofsted judgement
Our Lady's Catholic Primary Academy has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in September 2026, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was Our Lady's Catholic Primary School, Princethorpe. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: Our Lady's Catholic Primary School, Princethorpe (closed August 2026)
Ofsted no longer gives schools a single overall grade. Each area of the school's work is graded on a five-point scale, and safeguarding is judged separately.

Results reflect each school's cohort as much as its teaching, and free school meals share is context, not a judgement. Small gaps between neighbouring schools are rarely meaningful on their own.
