A Gateshead Council community school for ages 3 to 11, with nursery classes.

Catchment. The catchment boundary runs along the east side of Wellington Street. Everything west of it is in Caedmon’s catchment: all the Ochre Yards blocks, and Wellington Street itself, including Worsdell House. East of Wellington Street is Bede Community Primary School’s catchment. Catchments are reviewed every year, so check your own address with Gateshead Council’s school admissions team before you apply.

Ofsted rated it Good at its last inspection, on 8 November 2023: good overall and in every area (quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years). The full report is on Ofsted’s page for the school (URN 108380).
