  Distance	1.1 mi

  Wigan hasn't published a real admission-distance figure, so this is a modelled estimate instead, built from local Census population density for this school's age group versus its intake size, the same class of technique other school-search sites use as their default catchment indicator when no official figure exists. Not based on real pupil addresses (nobody outside the school/council has access to that), and meaningfully less reliable than a published figure.

  Published admission distance is a real figure from Wigan council's own published records: how far the furthest-admitted pupil lived last year under the distance criterion. Drawn as a circle for simplicity, since real admission areas aren't circular, but the distance itself isn't modelled or guessed. It shifts every year with demand and isn't a guarantee.

  Published admission distance	0.78 mi (2025/26)
  URN	106431
  Distance	1.6 mi

  Published admission distance is a real figure from Wigan council's own published records: how far the furthest-admitted pupil lived last year under the distance criterion. Drawn as a circle for simplicity, since real admission areas aren't circular, but the distance itself isn't modelled or guessed. It shifts every year with demand and isn't a guarantee.

  Wigan hasn't published a real admission-distance figure, so this is a modelled estimate instead, built from local Census population density for this school's age group versus its intake size, the same class of technique other school-search sites use as their default catchment indicator when no official figure exists. Not based on real pupil addresses (nobody outside the school/council has access to that), and meaningfully less reliable than a published figure.

Leigh St Mary's CofE Primary School

Voluntary aided school · 0.1 mi

• Details Mixed +

  Phase	Primary
  Type	Voluntary aided school
  Age range	4–11
  Gender	Mixed
  Sixth form	Does not have a sixth form
  Religious character	Church of England
  Admissions policy	Not applicable
  Local authority	Wigan
  Head teacher	Mrs Sarah Watson

  Phone	01942673889

  Area deprivation	Quintile 4 of 5 (1 = most deprived fifth nationally)
  Estimated admission distance	0.22 mi Estimated
  URN	106516
  Distance	0.1 mi

  Wigan hasn't published a real admission-distance figure, so this is a modelled estimate instead, built from local Census population density for this school's age group versus its intake size, the same class of technique other school-search sites use as their default catchment indicator when no official figure exists. Not based on real pupil addresses (nobody outside the school/council has access to that), and meaningfully less reliable than a published figure.
