Ferryhill Station Primary School

Ofsted-rated Good.

• Details Mixed +

  Phase	Primary
  Type	Community school
  Age range	2–11

  Sixth form	Does not have a sixth form

  Area deprivation	Quintile 5 of 5 (1 = most deprived fifth nationally)
  Estimated admission distance	0.62 mi Estimated
  URN	114078
  Distance	0.6 mi

  County Durham hasn't published a real admission-distance figure, so this is a modelled estimate instead, built from local Census population density for this school's age group versus its intake size, the same class of technique other school-search sites use as their default catchment indicator when no official figure exists. Not based on real pupil addresses (nobody outside the school/council has access to that), and meaningfully less reliable than a published figure.
