Wrexham Road Primary School
Places to Learn
1 Form Entry Primary School
Wrexham Road Primary School addresses the growing need for primary education in Chester South. Centrally located in Kings Moat Garden Village, it integrates with new housing and public spaces, offering a sustainable and flexible learning environment.
The two-storey school is oriented north-south to maximise daylight, with ground-floor classrooms opening onto secure play areas. Solar shading reduces glare, ensuring year-round comfort. Light buff brick and dark grey standing seam panels create a durable yet welcoming façade. The design incorporates solar panels, a rain-garden swale for water management, and extensive outdoor spaces, including a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA), grass pitches, and habitat zones to promote active learning.
Positioned within Kings Moat Garden Village, the school connects via Moat Lane and benefits from shared amenities like playing fields and Moat Park. As the area develops, the school will expand, ensuring accessible education for local families. Balancing innovation, sustainability, and community focus, Wrexham Road Primary School sets a benchmark for future educational projects in Cheshire.
