Crawford Village Primary School
About Crawford Village Primary School
Crawford Village Primary School is clearly a school that local families are keen to get into. For the 2025/26 intake, it received 34 applications for just 11 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.09, and 13 of those applications were first-preference choices. That level of demand suggests a strong reputation among parents, and it’s worth noting that the school’s capacity is listed at 70 pupils, yet it currently has 83 on roll, meaning it is already over its official capacity. The school is led by headteacher Debra Eaton and is a mixed, state primary for children aged 3 to 11, with nursery provision available. It has no religious character and sits within the West Lancashire borough. With just 4.9 per cent of pupils eligible for free school meals, the intake is notably less disadvantaged than many schools nationally, which may be another factor driving its popularity.
