About Coatham Church of England Primary School

Coatham Church of England Primary School sits within the Redcar and Cleveland local authority, a primary school ranked 26th out of 41 similar schools in the area. That places it in the bottom half of the LA table, though it’s worth noting that the three top-performing peers nearby — Badger Hill Academy, Newcomen Primary School, and Lockwood Primary School — all achieve higher ranking scores. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is Newcomen Primary, just 1.1 kilometres away. Coatham itself is a Church of England state primary for mixed pupils aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. It has a capacity of 210 pupils and currently enrols 211, so it’s running at full stretch. The school is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, there were 32 applications for 23 places, with all 23 first-preference applicants offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.39 suggests solid local demand, even if the school’s ranking doesn’t put it among the LA’s top tier.
