Education
The estate has several primary schools. Finchale Primary School and St Godric's Roman Catholic Primary School each comprise infant and juniors on the same site, whilst Newton Hall Infant School feeds into the adjoining Blue Coat Church of England Aided Junior School. The majority of Newton Hall children of secondary school age attend Framwellgate School Durham in nearby Framwellgate Moor, which also includes a sixth form. For further education, New College, Durham is nearby.
A nice place to live.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“We find that the child who does not yet have language at his command, the child under two and a half, will be able to cooperate with our education if we go easy on the “blocking” techniques, the outright prohibitions, the “no’s” and go heavy on “substitution” techniques, that is, the redirection or certain impulses and the offering of substitute satisfactions.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“There used to be housekeepers with more energy than sense—the everlasting scrubber; the over-neat woman. Since the better education of woman has come to stay, this type of woman has disappeared almost, if not entirely.”
—Caroline Nichols Churchill (1833–?)
“I prefer to finish my education at a different school.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
