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.
Congratulations to our very own Erika - a beautiful card to represent Darlington and the town’s railway heritage in this important anniversary year.

Congratulations to the Red House Team who earned the most tokens this term!
Their Captain, Joshua, told them he was so thrilled especially as they had started the term slowly but then showed great determination!

Unfortunately we have a major plumbing issue in school today and have no toilets in use.
Please come and collect your children as soon as you can as we can't stay open in these circumstances.
Please come to the main office.
Sincere apologies that this is how term is ending.

As we come to the end of our school term, I wanted to share a truly special moment from our final Collective Worship.
Today, we gathered as a whole school family to light the final Advent candle, completing our preparations for the birth of Jesus. The atmosphere was peaceful and reflective, but it was the children’s singing that truly moved us all. Their voices were absolutely beautiful and perfectly captured the joy and wonder of this holy season.
It was a wonderful reminder of the strength of our school community when we are all together. I simply had to share this moment of pride with you all!
It's just the sound, no video needed!
