About Tarleton Holy Trinity CofE Primary School

Tarleton Holy Trinity CofE Primary School is a Church of England primary for mixed pupils aged 4 to 11, and it’s a popular choice among local families. The school has capacity for 210 children and currently enrols 204, so it’s running very close to full. Its intake reflects a relatively low level of disadvantage: just 7.8% of pupils qualify for free school meals, well below the national average for primary schools. Demand is strong — for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 58 applications for 26 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.23. All 25 first-preference applicants were offered a place, which suggests that while the school is oversubscribed, families who put it first stand a good chance. This combination of near-full capacity and high demand signals a school that local parents clearly rate.
