About Chapel St Leonards Primary School

Chapel St Leonards Primary School is a state primary in East Lindsey that parents clearly want to get into. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school was oversubscribed, receiving 21 applications for just 13 places — an oversubscription ratio of 1.62. All 13 first-preference applicants were offered a place, meaning that while demand is strong, families who put it first stand a very good chance. The school currently has 134 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, so there is room to grow. A high proportion of its intake — 61.4% — qualifies for free school meals, which is significantly above the national average and gives a sense of the community it serves. The headteacher is Sherilyn Borrell, and the school has nursery provision for children from age 2.
