Laurence Jackson School is a genuinely comprehensive school serving the rural town of Guisborough and surrounding rural area. Students also choose to come to Laurence Jackson from south Middlesbrough. Whilst the school has a pupil premium that is broadly in line with the national average at 25%, our intake is wide ranging by nature, and we are proud of our very inclusive philosophy. In June 2024, Ofsted rated our school as Good.
The school is a larger than average 11 to 16 secondary school with 1240 on roll and PAN of 1250 and is full on first choices for September 2024 and has been oversubscribed for the last three years. Student mobility is low. The school moved into a new building in 2016 as part of the Building Schools for the Future initiative. The new school provides an excellent learning environment.
We have a strong and committed staff team and are very invested in developing our staff and providing excellent opportunities for progression and development and offer a number of opportunities for progression both in the school and wider trust.
We are a newly merged Trust comprising 4 secondary and 11 primary schools located across the Tees Valley and we provide opportunities for children and young people to reach their full potential, whatever their starting point.
