We are delighted to invite you to visit our school at any convenient time, all we ask is that you contact the Administrator before making such a visit to ensure one of the staff will be able to welcome you when you arrive. St. Luke’s is a school primarily for Catholic children but also welcomes children who are not Catholics but who come from families who share in our concern for a Christian upbringing for their children.
Further information can be found on Knowsley Council website.

Secondary transfer
