About Whitehouse Primary School
Whitehouse Primary School in Stockton-on-Tees is a state primary for children aged 3 to 11, and it is a school in clear demand. With 356 pupils on roll against a capacity of 422, it is not full to the brim, but the admissions data for 2025/26 tells a different story: the school received 56 applications for just 32 places, making it oversubscribed with a ratio of 1.75 applicants per place. All 32 first-preference families were offered a spot, which suggests strong local confidence. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 20.9%, noticeably above the national average for primary schools, which typically sits around 23-24% — so Whitehouse serves a community with above-average economic need. The school has a nursery provision, which can be a practical draw for families with younger children looking for a smooth transition into reception.
