THE SCHOOL RUN10 OUTSTANDING

Outstanding schools in County Durham

County Durham has 10 schools rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The catch is that a rating says nothing about your odds of a place: a school running full admits on distance, so the question becomes what homes near it cost. Below, each school with how full it runs (DfE capacity and pupil numbers) and the median sold price in its postcode area (HM Land Registry).

67% of County Durham's Outstanding schools run at 98% capacity or more · cheapest way in: DL16 at a £140,000 median.

Fullness is pupils against reported capacity (DfE school register). Prices are median sold prices in the school's postcode area over two years, not a catchment valuation: councils publish exact last-distance-offered cutoffs, so check yours before committing to a move.
