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.
A VERY well deserved treat for Year 6 today after working SO hard this week in their end of Key Stage Two tests.
Their attitude, resilience, perseverance and determination have been magnificent.
SATs only measure a tiny fraction of the incredible young people they are - we are privileged to know the whole child and we will all be making the most of their last few weeks with us before they move onto the next stage in their education journey.
We are SO proud of you, Year 6.

Class 4 have begun working with amazing artist Yvonne, to create some iconic props for the Darlington Community Carnival.
The carnival is Saturday 28th June, and we would love as many members of class 4 to join in the parade as possible!
More details to follow.

Apologies that the children left school a little late this afternoon but our VE Day 80 celebration over ran as we paid our respects to relatives who served in World War II.
With the flags, bunting and so many adults and children dressed in red, white and blue today was just lovely!
Thank you to everyone who shared photos, sound recordings and memories with us today - they made our shared celebration all the more special.

UPDATE - all back to normal now!
Our phones are down this morning - if you need to contact us, we are still able to access emails.
Apologies for the inconvenience - we are working with our provider to get the issue resolved.

VE DAY 80
A reminder that, to mark this very special event, the children are invited to come to school in red, white and blue tomorrow if they would like to.
I hope you've managed to see our very special commemorative disc on Cockerton Green and tomorrow we will hold a special assembly to remember those who served in WWII.

*** IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS/CARERS OF CHILDREN IN YEAR 4 ***
The children are due to visit Hopetown Darlington on Thursday 22nd May. Unfortunately, we have only received 50% of the requested voluntary contributions which means, if we do not receive additional contributions by the deadline (Friday 9th May) the trip may not go ahead.
Please check your emails for further information or contact the school office.
