Name of page

Should the page be called "Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School", which is the name of the school according to the sign at the main gates, or "Bishop Ullathorne RC School", which is its name according the schools official website. Snowman 14:29, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's always been known as Bishop Ullathorne RC school, for as long as I've known it. Those signs are relatively new.--Ninja9 (talk) 18:56, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In 2006 it was awarded specialist status as a Humanities College. On 10 July 2007 Bishop Ullathorne Year 9 Cricket team won the Coventry Cricket Cup against King Henry VIII winning their first ever cricket cup in the schools history. Initially the school had three separate parts; a boy's secondary modern school, a girl's secondary modern school and a grammar school. In 1968 these formed the core of the current comprehensive School, each of the three separate parts being initially identified as the Lower School, the Middle School and the Upper School before being re-dubbed 'A Block' and 'B Block' after the sale of the grammar school and the previously empty space between them being built on to form a single building. This area became passages for staff and allowed quick movement between the two structures, with students only being allowed access during heavy rainstorms or with special permission.

The Grammar School later became the home of the Coventry School For The Performing Arts before being sold to Bovis Homes who built a housing estate on the land.

Academics

The school currently has approximately 970 pupils, and includes a sixth form college. Bishop Ullathorne School achieved the highest SATS results for English in the whole of Coventry City (91%)and in 2012-13 100% of GCSE students received grades A*-C passes. Bishop Ullathorne currently ranks among the top 5 public secondary schools in Coventry. ^{[citation needed]}

Sport

Although relatively small, the school has a rich history in sport, football, gymnastics, cross country and rugby football. The school has won many Coventry Schools cups in football as well as winning the West Midlands Schools cup. ^{[citation needed]}

In the past five years the school has been in The Coventry Evening Telegraph Cup final four times, winning it three times. A special win came in 2006 when it was the first final to be played at The Ricoh Arena. A 3-0 victory ensured their win. ^{[citation needed]}

Rivals

Finham Park Secondary School and Bishop Ullathorne are noted rivals. The schools are in close proximity to one another. The main gates of Bishop Ullathorne RC School are off Leasowes Avenue at the bottom of Moat Avenue, off the Kenpas Highway (A45). Finham Park School, with main gains on Green Lane, is close by as the crow flies, but it is on the other side of the Coventry to Kenilworth railway line. The school gates of the two schools are 10-15 minutes walking distance apart, as there is no direct access across the railway line.
