About Ingleton CofE Primary School

Ingleton CofE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in County Durham, one of 208 state primary schools in the local authority. It ranks 48th in the LA on the key stage 2 expected standard measure, placing it just inside the top quarter of County Durham primaries. The top-performing peers in the area are Montalbo Nursery & Primary School, Shincliffe CofE (Controlled) Primary School, and Cestria Primary School, all of which score higher on the same metric.
