A Melrose Learning Trust School

Welcome to the St. Mary’s Cockerton Primary School website.

If you or anyone you know have a child born between 1 September 2020 and 31 August 2021 they are eligible to start school in September 2025.

We would be honoured if you were considering our school and would love to meet you and show you round.

Please contact the school office by phone (01325 380758) or email (office@stmaryscockerton.org.uk) to arrange a visit, tour and chat.

Applications must be made to Darlington Borough Council School Admissions by 19th January 2025.

Our school is a place where all are welcomed and invited to build a community where God’s love is shared to enable positive engagement, action and education; allowing children, staff and pupils to be inspired to raise their eyes, open their minds and explore the world God created. Participating in God’s mission of love to both the local community and the wider world, we live fully as global neighbours. This work has been externally recognised and led us to be awarded the Bronze Global Neighbours Award by Christian Aid.

We are located on the west side of Darlington in the Cockerton Village area. We are a single form entry school and accommodate around 210 children in school. We have a wide catchment and we take children from all around the surrounding area and we feed into all the local secondary schools.

If you would like to visit us or would like more information about the school, please get in touch with the school office.

Did you know that the NHS Pharmacy First Service enables children and adults to get convenient access to healthcare advice and treatment where appropriate, for seven common conditions without the potential delay of having to wait for a GP appointment? Accessing the service may help children feel better and get back to school as quickly as possible, as well as supporting parents/carers to also get better if they are unwell with one of the conditions covered under the service.
There is no need to make an appointment; parents or carers can pop into their local pharmacy with their child and ask for help under the service.
Support for the conditions in the video can be accessed under the service, free of charge (unless NHS prescription charges apply)

I am delighted to share this weeks attendance figures which shows that, in this final week of term, four classes met or exceeded our school target!
A special shout out to Class 6 - to have 5 days in a row of 100% is a true reflection of how much they value coming to school every day. To show how proud I am of them all, the class got a tub of Heroes chocolates this morning!
The whole school attendance for the Autumn Term is 94.77% which is SO close to our target - hopefully well smash it next term!
