In 2026-27, the last place at Our Lady of the Rosary Primary School went to an applicant living 0.70 miles from the school. The last place went under criterion 5 (“Baptised Catholic children with a Certificate of Catholic Practice”), a priority group, so this distance applies only to that group, not to every family. We hold 3 years of published distances for this school.
We do not compare these years: we do not hold the criterion the last place went under for every one of them, or it differs between them, so the distances may not be like for like.
In 2026-27, Our Lady of the Rosary Primary School received 125 applications for 30 places — around 4.2 per place. 50 named it as a first preference, or about 1.7 first choices per place.

Last distance offered, places, applications and first preferences for Reception entry, 2014-15 to 2025-26, where the council published them, are part of Pro.
Verified from official sources across all four UK nations — when a figure isn't confirmed, we show nothing, never a guess.The places offered, applications and first preferences for 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21, 2021-22 and 2022-23 (Reception) are DfE's figures for its predecessor, Our Lady of the Rosary RC Primary School, before it converted.
2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21, 2021-22 and 2022-23 (Reception) were the admissions rounds of its predecessor, Our Lady of the Rosary RC Primary School (URN 125215): every figure for those years is that school's.
How to read this: the last distance offered is an outcome of each admission round — how far from the school the final offer reached after places were allocated under the published criteria. It is not a catchment boundary and it moves every year with sibling numbers, birth-year cohort size and application patterns.
Figures come from the local authority's published allocation data. Some councils publish the National Offer Day figure, which can understate the final September position after waiting-list movement — always confirm with the admissions authority before relying on a single year.
