Welcome

I’m extremely proud to be the Headteacher of such a welcoming, supportive and caring school community. We are a small primary school which caters for children aged 2-11 with a wide range of needs. Our staff team are extremely dedicated and recognise the potential in every child, celebrating successes and offering both engaging learning activities and environments.

Our children are at the heart of all we do, as are you the family. When you join Acorns, you join our family and our amazing staff team will work alongside you every step of the way to secure the very best outcomes for your child.

If you have any questions or want to come and visit us, please get in touch as we would love to meet you and welcome you to our wonderful school.

Informal Consultation

Over the last year the School and Governing Body have been in discussion with Lancashire Education Authority regarding the possibility of expanding the number of places at Acorns Primary School. An informal consultation into this possibility is being launched.  The proposal is to increase the schools pupil numbers by 20 and to increase parking facilities on site to ease congestion.


 There is currently an informal consultation ongoing from 4 November 2024 to 22 November 2024. A decision will then be made as to whether it goes to formal consultation.  If it does, we will update you with the date of a meeting in school where a representative from Lancashire County Council will attend to provide further information and answer any questions you may have.


The document can be found under the Key information and in Informal Consultation.
