About Weston St Mary Church of England Primary School

Weston St Mary Church of England Primary School is a small village primary in South Holland, Lincolnshire, with just 54 pupils on roll against a capacity of 56. That near-full occupancy is no accident: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 12 applications for just 7 places, with 6 of those coming as first preferences, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.71. The school’s intake is notably diverse in terms of disadvantage — 63% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average and signals a community with significant socioeconomic need. As a Church of England school, it has a religious character, though the data doesn’t specify whether this influences admissions criteria. The headteacher is Katherine Chevli, and the school serves children from ages 4 to 11. Given its small size and high demand, families considering Weston St Mary should be prepared for a competitive admissions process, particularly if applying from outside the immediate catchment area.
