Cookridge Primary School was originally opened in January 1960 with 7 classes of children between 5 and 8 years of age. Since that time it has been extended and, in 1992, closed and immediately reopened as a 5 - 11 primary school as part of Leeds City Council's programme of reorganisation.
In September 2005 we moved into a beautiful new school building provided through the Private Finance Initiative. The building has a ‘state of the art' Foundation area comprising large well equipped Early Years and Reception facilities.
It also has 9 Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 classrooms all of which are equipped with interactive whiteboards, a large hard surface games and play area, a spacious hall, excellent fields and a modern ICT suite.
