About St Mary's Catholic Primary Voluntary Academy (Brigg)
St Mary's Catholic Primary Voluntary Academy in Brigg sits within the North Lincolnshire local authority, where it ranks 3rd out of 62 primary schools of the same type. It is one of only five schools in the area to hold an Outstanding rating, though its own most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated it Good across all categories, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision. The school is placed just behind three top-performing peers in the authority: Winteringham Primary School, South Ferriby Primary School, and Holme Valley Primary School. With 177 pupils on roll against a capacity of 182, it is a relatively small school, and its Roman Catholic character gives it a distinctive place in the local landscape. The headteacher is James Leech.
