About Sedgefield Hardwick Primary Academy

Sedgefield Hardwick Primary Academy is a primary school in Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 256 pupils aged 2 to 11 attend the school. 87% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 16.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 4% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 109 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 23% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Sedgefield Hardwick Primary Academy their first choice was offered one of its 30 Reception places. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 3.18 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 4.6%. There are about 18.9 pupils per teacher. Sedgefield Hardwick Primary Academy does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
