Stivichall Primary School

What Stivichall Primary School does

Stivichall Primary School is a state-funded primary school located in Stivichall, Coventry, United Kingdom, maintained by Coventry City Council. It serves children aged 4–11 (Reception through Year 6) and operates three Reception classes, suggesting a multi-form-entry school of several hundred pupils. The school is led by Head Teacher Mrs K Ferguson, with a Deputy Headteacher (Mr R Gould), SENCo/Inclusion Lead (Mrs L Franckeiss, currently on maternity leave), School Counsellor (Sophie Bellamy), Mental Health Lead, and an office management team. Governance is provided by a board of governors, and staff vacancies are managed through the Coventry City Council careers portal.

The institution's underlying technology stack is built on third-party educational SaaS. The website is hosted on Juniper Websites (Juniper Education); parent communication is delivered through Seesaw and the MyChildAtSchool (MCAS) parent portal; and digital newsletters are produced using Microsoft Sway. Curriculum technology includes Learning by Questions (LBQ) for Key Stage 2 maths, Times Tables Rockstars, Floppy's Phonics, Charanga (music), Jigsaw (PSHE), Real PE (physical education), Primary Languages Network (French and Japanese with native-speaker video), and the NCCE/Teach Computing scheme (Raspberry Pi Foundation). Pedagogical programmes include Forest School, residential outdoor education (PGL and Plas Dol-y-Moch), VEX Robotics (Year 5), and a Voice 21 oracy curriculum.

As a UK state school, Stivichall Primary School does not operate a commercial revenue model. Core education is provided free at the point of delivery, funded through central government grants administered via Coventry City Council. Incremental fee-based income is generated from school meals, wrap-around childcare provision, and residential trip costs. The school holds three accreditations: Eco Schools Green Flag with Merit (2022), LOtC Mark Silver (2023), and School Games Mark Gold (2023). There are no subsidiaries, no private shareholders, and no commercial expansion plans documented.

• Greenwood Academies Trust: Multi-academy trust operating a portfolio of primary and secondary schools, with a strong East Midlands and East of England footprint. Comparable as a state-funded primary operator sharing regulatory and funding dynamics with local-authority-maintained schools.
