About St Mary's Catholic Primary School, Isleworth

St Mary’s Catholic Primary School in Isleworth is a state-funded primary for mixed pupils aged 3 to 11, and it is clearly a popular choice among local families. The school has capacity for 420 children but currently enrols 393, leaving a small number of spare places. However, demand significantly outstrips supply: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 141 applications for just 56 places, with only 46 first-preference offers made. That works out at 2.52 applications for every place, a strong signal of its reputation in the borough. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 10.9%, which is below the national average for primary schools and suggests a relatively affluent intake. As a Roman Catholic school, its admissions criteria will naturally prioritise families with a faith connection, which may partly explain the high demand. The school also offers nursery provision, so families can join from age three.
