About New Longton All Saints CofE Primary School
If you're looking for a primary school where parents are genuinely happy, the numbers at New Longton All Saints CofE Primary School are striking. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering responses from September 2024 to September 2025, a remarkable 98% of parents said they would recommend the school to others. That's a near-unanimous vote of confidence from 89 respondents. Digging into the detail, 99% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and the same proportion felt their child is safe. The school is clearly popular with families in South Ribble, too: for the 2025/26 academic year, it received 63 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 1. Of those, 32 were first-preference applications, and 29 of those families were offered a place. It's a Church of England primary with a nursery provision, and headteacher Nicola Urey leads a school that is operating slightly over its official capacity of 210, with 214 pupils currently on roll.
