About Collierley Nursery and Primary School
Collierley Nursery and Primary School’s Key Stage 2 results sit noticeably below the County Durham average for primary schools, which is 62 per cent of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. At Collierley, just 39 per cent of pupils achieved that combined benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That puts the school 155th out of 170 primaries in the local authority, placing it in the bottom half of schools in County Durham. Nationally, it ranks in the 92nd percentile among all primary schools, meaning roughly 92 per cent of schools nationally performed better on this measure. The gap is significant, and parents looking at headline attainment figures will want to weigh this against the school’s other strengths.
