About Lea Neeld's Endowed Church of England Primary School

Lea Neeld's Endowed Church of England Primary School is a primary school in Preston, Lancashire, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Church of England religious character. Around 140 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 65% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 15.0 percentage points compared with the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 27% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 107 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 15% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). 80% of the families who made Lea Neeld's Endowed Church of England Primary School their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, even though the school made at least as many offers as it had first choices - the rest withdrew, moved or fell outside a priority group. Overall pupil absence was 4.7%. There are about 20.2 pupils per teacher.
