School Atlas lists 114 state primary schools, 31 state secondary schools, 2 all-through schools, 12 special schools, 4 alternative provision schools and 3 post-16 schools and colleges in Liverpool. It also lists 16 independent schools and 143 nurseries and other early-years settings.
Of the state primary, secondary and all-through schools, 74 have a religious character: 52 Roman Catholic, 16 Church of England, 3 Church of England/Roman Catholic, 2 Jewish and 1 Roman Catholic/Church of England.
Of the 147 state primary, secondary and all-through schools in Liverpool, 76 hold an Ofsted overall-effectiveness grade from their last graded inspection: 5 Outstanding, 68 Good and 3 Requires improvement.
Ofsted stopped giving state schools a single overall grade in September 2024. Since November 2025 its report cards grade each area separately; 31 of these schools have had one.
Liverpool doesn't publish catchment boundaries, so there’s no boundary map to check. Distance usually decides a place.
We also hold last-distance-offered records for 27 schools. That distance is not always a cut-off: at a school with places to spare it is simply the furthest applicant.
