Schools in Leicester

Reviewed by the catchment.school editorial team · Last updated 15 March 2026

Leicester and the surrounding area have 225 schools split between Leicester City Council (134 schools) and Leicestershire County Council (91). The city boundary is significant: schools in Oadby, Birstall or Wigston sit in Leicestershire and are coordinated by the county, not the city, with different admissions criteria.

Leicester City has a diverse school landscape with a high proportion of schools with a faith character, including Church of England, Roman Catholic and Hindu-ethos schools. Popular community primaries in areas such as Aylestone, Clarendon Park and Western Park see consistent oversubscription, with distance tiebreakers that can be under a mile at the most popular schools.

Leicestershire County operates selective grammar schools in market towns such as Hinckley, Market Harborough and Loughborough, which attract applicants from across the county. Families in the Leicester suburbs weighing grammar options should note that 11-plus registration closes separately from the main admissions round.

School demand in Leicester

Across the 209 schools in Leicester with published capacity data, the average fill rate is 91%. 46 of them are currently at or above their published admission number, and at those schools catchment distance is likely to decide places at the next intake.

49 schools in Leicester have a religious character, so faith criteria sit alongside catchment distance in their admissions policies.

128 of the schools in Leicester are academies that set their own admissions criteria independently of Leicestershire, so check each school's policy directly rather than assuming the council default applies.

92 of the schools in Leicester have a current Ofsted rating, of which 77 are rated Good or Outstanding. Demand and catchment distance tend to be tightest at the highest-rated schools.
