Palgrave Church of England Primary School

Ofsted-rated Good; 100.0% meeting the expected standard.

Details Mixed +

Phase	Primary
Type	Academy converter
Age range	5–11
Gender	Mixed

Area deprivation	Quintile 2 of 5 (1 = most deprived fifth nationally)
Estimated admission distance	1.22 mi Estimated
URN	143071
Distance	0.9 mi

Suffolk 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.
