Schools in Bedworth

Reviewed by the catchment.school editorial team · Last updated 15 March 2026

Bedworth has 12 schools in north Warwickshire, coordinated by Warwickshire County Council, including 10 primaries and one secondary school - Nicholas Chamberlaine Trust Academy. Five schools have a religious character and six of the seven Ofsted-rated schools hold a Good or Outstanding rating. One school is currently oversubscribed.

Bedworth sits between Coventry and Nuneaton, and some families choose to apply for schools in neighbouring Coventry or Nuneaton, particularly at secondary level. Warwickshire's non-selective system means secondary admissions are distance and sibling-based. The Local Authority's composite admissions prospectus includes last-offered distances for oversubscribed schools, which families should check before ranking preferences.

School demand in Bedworth

Across the 11 schools in Bedworth with published capacity data, the average fill rate is 90%. 1 of them is currently at or above their published admission number, and at those schools catchment distance is likely to decide places at the next intake.

5 schools in Bedworth have a religious character, so faith criteria sit alongside catchment distance in their admissions policies.

6 of the schools in Bedworth are academies that set their own admissions criteria independently of Warwickshire, so check each school's policy directly rather than assuming the council default applies.

7 of the schools in Bedworth have a current Ofsted rating, of which 6 are rated Good or Outstanding. Demand and catchment distance tend to be tightest at the highest-rated schools.
