About Normanby Primary School

Normanby Primary School is a mixed state primary in Redcar and Cleveland, currently home to 491 pupils against a capacity of 550, so there is a little breathing room in terms of space. The school serves a community with above-average economic disadvantage: 22% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, compared with the national primary average of around 24% and a local context that suggests similar pressures. Demand is clear — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 72 applications for 50 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.44 applicants per place. All 50 first-preference families received an offer, which suggests that while the school is popular, it is not yet at the point of turning away local children who list it as their top choice. The school has nursery provision, so families can start their children here from age three.
