About Haslingden Primary School

Haslingden Primary School is a popular choice among local families, with 107 applications for just 55 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1. 95. Of those 107 applicants, 52 listed the school as their first preference, and all 52 were offered a place. This level of demand suggests the school has a strong reputation in the Rossendale area. The school is a mixed, state primary for children aged 4 to 11, with no religious character. It currently has 381 pupils on roll, against a capacity of 420, so there is some room for growth.
