Conyers School
About Conyers School
Conyers School is a large, mixed state secondary in Stockton-on-Tees, currently home to 1,340 pupils against a capacity of 1,366, meaning it runs very close to full. The proportion of students eligible for free school meals stands at 21.2%, which is notably higher than the national average for secondary schools and signals an intake that draws from a broad socioeconomic spread. Demand is strong: for the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 598 applications for 210 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.85, with 188 first-preference offers made. That level of competition suggests Conyers is a popular choice among local families, despite not being the highest-ranked school in the local authority. Its religious character is listed as 'Does not apply', and the headteacher is Chris Coleman.
