About Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School, Southport

Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School in Southport is a popular choice among local families, with 24 first-preference applications for its 24 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, meaning every family who put it first got a spot. The school was oversubscribed overall, receiving 37 applications for those 24 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.54. This suggests a healthy level of demand without the intense competition seen at some nearby primaries. Parent satisfaction signals are positive, though the school does not publish a specific parent-view recommendation percentage in its data. With 206 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is running close to full, and its Church of England character, under headteacher Linda Thompson, gives it a distinct identity within Sefton’s primary landscape.
