Opposite the church is St. Mary's Roman Catholic School, a single storey 1960s building.

In 1859 the school moved to a new building next to the presbytery of the church, opposite the current site.

As a result of boundary revisions for the 2010 general election the Crosby constituency was abolished with its northern parts, including Little Crosby, being merged with the Eastern parts of Sefton that were formerly part of the Knowsley North and Sefton East constituency, to form the new constituency of Sefton Central, which is currently represented by the Labour Party MP Bill Esterson.

For elections to Sefton Council Little Crosby is within the Manor electoral ward and is represented by three councillors.
