About us

"Cockington Primary School is a welcoming school. Staff will do anything for the children, who are at the heart of everything we do."

Cockington Primary School is a wonderful place to come to everyday. I love working with the children.

"My children are happy at this school, the staff are nice and helpful when needed."

Thank you to inviting me to the Y5 outcome - it was absolutely amazing!

"Cockington Primary School has looked after my children well throughout their time."

What an amazing show! Well done Year 5.

"Both my boys are very happy to come to school every morning; they adore the nurturing, genuinely warm, caring staff and enjoy all the extra experiences that Cockington provides: trips, clubs, curriculum outcomes to name a few!"

"The children who came to work with our residents were very respectful. The residents enjoyed celebrating the King's Coronation with them."

Your children were all highly engaged in every type of play and bursting with sheer joy and happiness. I had wanted to see an Opal school play ground in action, as I've seen and shown many video clips to my school team and our school council but to stand and watch your children in action was amazing. There were so many children completely oblivious to us as visitors because of how engrossed they were in their learning. The way you have used your grounds and the set up was much more than I expected.

"My first impression of the school was of the brilliant reception staff who, though clearly very busy, were as welcoming as they were efficient."

Pupils behave exceptionally well. They are polite, welcoming and respectful of others. At breaktimes, pupils play cooperatively. They speak positively about the inclusive and kind school culture.

The children who attended the Torquay United match are a credit to your school the way they behaved. They didn't stop singing despite the bad weather!
