Old Farm School
Brotton, Redcar and Cleveland, North East · TS12 2TZ
Old Farm School is a notably small independent school in Brotton, with just 39 pupils on roll and a mixed intake from age 11. With numbers this low, it offers a markedly intimate setting where each pupil is well known to staff, led by headteacher Mr Steve Graham. As a non-denominational school inspected by the ISI, it sits well outside the conventional mould of larger independents. Families drawn to a very small, close-knit environment will find this an unusual proposition.

Teaching & academics
Pupils work towards GCSEs, and the school operates 11+ entry. Published attainment figures are well below national benchmarks: an Attainment 8 score of 6.9 against a national average of 46.9, and 0% of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths compared with 47% nationally. With so few pupils, headline figures should be read with caution, and parents will want to discuss individual progress and provision directly with the school.

The last word
A very small independent offering a highly personal setting; parents should look closely at the published attainment data and ask searching questions about academic provision.
