A Melrose Learning Trust School

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

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.

I will continue to post information about events going on in Darlington over the summer, but apart from that our school Facebook page will be taking a break for the next few weeks.
All the staff wish all our families and friends a happy and restful summer holiday.

Four children have worked with Mrs Nicholson to design, make, test and evaluate motorized vehicles. You can see they had great fun racing the finished models!
Well done, STEM Engineers of the future!

I was asked at the gate this morning if tomorrow would be uniform as usual - I said 'yes'.

However, I have had a constant stream of children this morning asking if it can be non-uniform for the last day of the school year!

With their puppy-dog eyes and persistent pleading, I caved - uniform is NOT required tomorrow unless they want to.
