Plans to transform Rose Hill Primary School in Marple have been completed.Following consultation with the school and local community, a formal planning application has now been submitted for a proposed new high quality educational facility fit for the 21st century for children and staff. 

 The new building will reflect current thinking on green sustainable approaches, and offer more flexible learning spaces of contemporary design. 

Rose Hill opened on two sites in September 2009, and the new school building at Rose Hill, designed for a 2.5 form entry, will open in September 2011. This will replace the existing three school buildings, each of which are over 40 years old and in poor condition.
