About Euxton Primrose Hill Primary School

Euxton Primrose Hill Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 208 applications for just 59 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.53. Of those, 81 families put it as their first preference, and 56 first-preference offers were made. That level of demand suggests parents in Chorley rate it highly, and the school’s own parent view data would likely back that up if it were published. With a capacity of 420 and currently 417 pupils on roll, it is running very close to full, which reinforces its reputation as a go-to primary in the area. The school is a state-funded, mixed primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no religious character and no nursery or sixth form provision. Claire Jones is the headteacher.
