Schools in Lutterworth

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

Lutterworth has 13 schools including 10 primaries and 2 secondaries, coordinated by Leicestershire County Council. Nine of those schools carry a Church of England designation — an unusually high proportion reflecting the area's village church school heritage. This means faith criteria (typically regular worship at a named church) apply ahead of distance at the majority of Lutterworth's schools.

Twelve of the 13 schools operate as academies, so most admissions run independently of the LA process. The average fill rate is 86 per cent and three schools are oversubscribed. All five of the recently Ofsted-rated schools are Good or Outstanding, making Lutterworth one of the stronger-performing rural areas in Leicestershire.
