About schools in Co Durham
OfferDay lists one school in Co Durham, a primary school.
Every school on this page is inspected by Ofsted. Its newer reports judge a school across several areas rather than giving one overall grade, while older reports still carry the previous single grade, so read the framework and the date on each page before you set two schools side by side. Where results have been published you will also find each primary school's key stage 2 scores. An inspection or a results table captures a school at one past moment, so use this page to draw up a shortlist and then visit.
