About Lazonby C of E Primary School

Lazonby C of E Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for its key stage 2 outcomes, with 67% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Westmorland and Furness average of 58%. That nine-point gap puts the school in the top half of primary schools in the area — ranked 36th out of 121 — and it lands within the top 50% nationally too. The school is oversubscribed, with nine first-preference offers made for nine places and 20 total applications, which gives an oversubscription ratio of 2.22. That level of demand suggests local families see something worth securing. The school is a Church of England primary, led by headteacher Andrew Davies, and it caters for children from age 3 through to 11, with nursery provision on site. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, in January 2023, rated it Good across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — a clean sweep that matches its previous Good rating from 2012.
