⚠️ Important: Catchment Measuring Points Vary

Some schools measure from the school gates, others from the main entrance, a specific published measuring point, or the centre of the school building. Always check Upton Hall School FCJ's published admissions policy or contact Wirral Council directly to confirm the exact measuring point before relying on any distance calculation.
