Hartburn Primary School
About Hartburn Primary School
Hartburn Primary School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 154 applications for just 81 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.9. All 81 first-preference applicants were offered a spot, which suggests that if you put it top of your list, you have a strong chance of getting in, but it is by no means a certainty. The school is a state primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site, and is led by headteacher Lindsey Wain. It sits in the Stockton-on-Tees local authority, where it ranks 13th out of 55 primary schools on its key stage 2 results. That puts it comfortably in the top 25 per cent of schools locally, and in the top 13 per cent nationally. With 593 pupils against a capacity of 599, it is essentially full, which underlines its standing in the community.
