Manchester’s Changing Skyline

We are delighted to announce that construction on the new primary school we are building - Crown Street Primary School - as it will be known - is now well underway, providing a 210-place primary school for the local community, the first to open in the city in almost twenty years.
The school will be operated by the Laurus Trust, with their appointment as the city council's preferred operator also agreed by the Department for Education (DFE). The Laurus Trust already operates Didsbury High School in Manchester as well as others across Greater Manchester and is highly regarded for the education it provides. The Trust's vision is for all young people, regardless of background or circumstance, to be inspired, to thrive in all environments, to recognise what it takes to succeed, to set aspirational goals, and to work hard to achieve them.
Plans for the new school were first agreed by the Council's Executive in February 2020, and since then we have worked in partnership with Manchester City Council on the design and development of the school - which will be nestled between two neighbouring towers; The Blade and Elizabeth Tower.
The school forms an important part of the wider residential neighbourhood we are creating in the Great Jackson Street area, located at the end of Deansgate. The new neighbourhood – once complete - will comprise over 6,300 high quality new homes as well as a city centre park with a children's play park, a medical facility and a dental studio, as well as a variety of independent restaurants, bars, and a cookery school. As majority landowner we are proud to be leading this transformation, and creating much needed infrastructure for people to call the city their ‘home’.
The school will open with a 26 place Pre-School class and a 30 place Reception class. Another Pre-School and Reception class will be added each year until the school has pupils in Pre-School through to Year 6. There will also be an on-site Day Care setting for children younger than three. Construction of the school will be finished in 2024, with the first pupils expected through the school’s doors in September 2024.
