About St Elizabeth's Catholic Primary School

St Elizabeth's Catholic Primary School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 41 applications for just 25 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 64. Of those applications, 24 were first-preference choices, meaning nearly all successful families had the school as their top pick. While the school doesn't publish a formal parent satisfaction survey, this level of demand is a strong signal that families in Tamworth rate it highly. The school is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary for mixed genders aged 4 to 11, led by headteacher Sarah Colloff. It currently has 200 pupils on roll, just shy of its capacity of 210, so classes are full but not overcrowded. A quarter of pupils (26. 5%) are eligible for free school meals, which is above the national average, giving the school a genuinely mixed intake.
