Arkholme Church of England Primary School

Voluntary aided school · 2.5 mi

Ofsted-rated Good.

• Details Mixed +

  Phase	Primary
  Type	Voluntary aided school
  Age range	3–11
  Gender	Mixed
  Sixth form	Does not have a sixth form
  Religious character	Church of England
  Admissions policy	Not applicable
  Local authority	Lancashire
  Head teacher	Mr David Prescott
  Address	Arkholme, Carnforth, Lancashire
  Phone	01524221418
  Website	http://www.arkholme.lancs.sch.uk
  Area deprivation	Quintile 1 of 5 (1 = most deprived fifth nationally)
  Estimated admission distance	1.61 mi Estimated
  URN	119523
  Distance	2.5 mi

  Lancashire 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.
