Frequently asked questions

How does school quality affect house prices?
Research consistently shows that proximity to Outstanding Ofsted-rated schools increases property values by 8–12%. This is known as the 'school premium'. Even the difference between Good and Outstanding can mean a 3–5% price difference. HouseCheckup's IQ Score includes school quality as one of the 6 weighted factors.
Where does HouseCheckup get school data?
HouseCheckup uses DfE Get Information About Schools (GIAS) for school details and Ofsted inspection data for ratings. This covers all state-funded schools in England including primary, secondary, special, and nursery schools. The data includes the latest inspection rating, date, and key findings.
Does HouseCheckup show school catchment areas?
HouseCheckup shows the nearest schools by distance and their Ofsted ratings. Catchment areas are set by individual schools and local authorities and can change yearly. Our report helps you understand which schools are nearby, but always verify catchment eligibility directly with the school or local authority.
