Christ The King Catholic Primary School
About Christ The King Catholic Primary School
Christ The King Catholic Primary School in Liverpool is clearly a popular choice among local families, with 146 applications for 61 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.39. Fifty of those applications were first-preference offers, meaning every family who put the school as their top choice secured a place. While the school does not publish a formal parent recommendation percentage, the high demand speaks for itself. The school is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, led by headteacher David Delaney. It has capacity for 420 pupils and currently enrols 413, so it is running very close to full. Just over 11% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is slightly below the national average, suggesting a relatively mixed intake. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in April 2024, confirmed it remains Good and is described as improving.
