Welcome to our school

We hope that through this website you will gain an insight into how our school operates, how we hope to work with you and your child and how this partnership will ensure that this is a community school where learning creates success for all our children.

We are a large primary school serving the needs of the Laygate & Riverside area of South Shields, Tyne & Wear. Laygate Community School aims to provide and maintain an environment which is secure, caring and stimulating, so that all groups within the school can reach their full potential.
