About St Mary's Catholic Primary School, Lea Town

St Mary’s Catholic Primary School in Lea Town is a small state primary with a published capacity of 105 pupils, and its size is a defining feature. The school serves a mixed cohort of boys and girls aged 4 to 11, and as a Roman Catholic school in the Lancashire authority, it draws families who value a faith-based education. While the data does not include the current pupil roll or free school meal percentage, the school’s modest capacity suggests an intimate setting where children are likely to be well known by staff. Demand appears strong: the school’s admission information indicates it is oversubscribed, meaning parents should be prepared to apply early and meet the religious criteria. In the broader Lancashire context, where there are 480 primary schools in total, St Mary’s is a relatively small player, but its popularity signals a solid reputation among local families. The school does not offer nursery provision, so entry begins at Reception, and there is no sixth form, as is standard for a primary.
