About Belmont Cheveley Park Primary School

Belmont Cheveley Park Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families, with 54 applications for just 22 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2. 45. Every one of those 22 first-preference applicants was offered a place, which suggests that while the school is in demand, it is not impossible to get into if you live nearby. ParentView data is not available here, but the sheer volume of applications relative to capacity — the school has 204 pupils against a capacity of 230 — points to a strong local reputation. Headteacher Amy Goodwin leads a mixed, non-religious state primary for children aged 3 to 11 in County Durham, and the school also offers nursery provision. With 23. 5 per cent of pupils eligible for free school meals, it serves a reasonably diverse catchment in terms of income.
