This School Guide heat map has been plotted using official pupil data taken from the last School Census collected by the Department for Education. It is a visualisation of where pupils lived at the time of the annual School Census.

Our heat maps use groups of postcodes, not individual postcodes, and have naturally soft edges. All pupils are included in the mapping (i.e. children with siblings already at the school, high priority pupils and selective and/or religious admissions) but we may have removed statistical ‘outliers’ with more remote postcodes that do not reflect majority admissions.

For some schools, the heat map may be a useful indicator of the catchment area but our heat maps are not the same as catchment area maps. Catchment area maps, published by the school or local authority, are based on geographical admissions criteria and show actual cut-off distances and pre-defined catchment areas for a single admission year.

This information is provided as a guide only. The criteria in which schools use to allocate places in the event that they are oversubscribed can and do vary between schools and over time. These criteria can include distance from the school and sometimes specific catchment areas but can also include, amongst others, priority for siblings, children of a particular faith or specific feeder schools. Living in an area where children have previously attended a school does not guarantee admission to the school in future years. Always check with the school’s own admission authority for the current admission arrangements.

3 steps to help parents gather catchment information for a school:

  1. Look at our school catchment area guide for more information on heat maps. They give a useful indicator of the general areas that admit pupils to the school. This visualisation is based on all attending pupils present at the time of the annual School Census.
  2. Use the link to the Local Authority Contact (above) to find catchment area information based on a single admission year. This is very important if you are considering applying to a school.
  3. On each school page, use the link to visit the school website and find information on individual school admissions criteria. Geographical criteria are only applied after pupils have been admitted on higher priority criteria such as Looked After Children, SEN, siblings, etc.

School Description

The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. Since your arrival in September 2016, you have made significant changes to the culture of the school that have resulted in increased stability, a contented workforce and happy pupils. You, your staff, pupils and their parents and carers are rightly proud of the school’s accolade as a Unicef level 2 Rights Respecting School, which permeates the ethos of the community. Pupils were keen to explain what this means and the work they have been doing to raise funds to help build a school in India. Pupils and staff consistently treat each other with kindness and respect. Older pupils explained enthusiastically how they applied to become part of ‘team CRC’ (Convention on the Rights of the Child) which helps younger pupils. Other pupils have been elected as ‘rights respecting officers’ in order to represent pupils’ views and this group has recently updated the school’s anti-bullying policy. As one parent commented: ‘The school is very good at celebrating diversity, values equality and has had an increased focus on inclusive practices this year.’ You and your deputies have an accurate understanding of the school’s strengths and what still needs to be developed. You have created a clear plan to achieve the high standard of education you want to provide. Many of your actions have already proved highly beneficial for staff, pupils and their parents. All were unanimous in complimenting you on the positive changes that have happened since your appointment. As one parent said: ‘All members of staff are now more happy and friendly since the new head started.’ You are proud of the fact that you are an inclusive community school. You welcome parents into the school and work closely with them to educate their children. Consequently, you have built trusting relationships with families and the local community. This means that you can support them to access external support quickly, should they need it. Earlier this year, you held a safeguarding conference to highlight potential issues, which was well attended by parents. As a result, you have instigated a safeguarding working group for parents and staff to ensure that information is up to date and relevant to the needs of the community. Pupils who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities make very good progress in your specialist unit. Your team carefully assess each pupil’s complex needs and work closely with their parents to ensure that they make good progress from their starting points. Some begin their school life in your specialist unit and then successfully transfer into full-time mainstream. Others learn in the unit, but enjoy participating in whole-school events, as they are appropriately prepared for the next stage of their education. For instance, during the inspection, pupils thoroughly enjoyed a whole-school drumming session where they learned how to play several different rhythms at the same time. Governors are experienced and share your commitment to ensure that the school provides the very best quality of education for every child. They are clear about areas requiring further development and appropriately hold you to account for planned actions. Safeguarding is effective. You and your staff have prioritised keeping pupils safe. You have created a nurturing and inclusive environment where all pupils feel cared for and protected. You have ensured that safeguarding arrangements are fit for purpose and that records are detailed and of a high quality. Checks on the suitability of staff to work at the school are consistent with statutory regulations. Staff and governors receive relevant and up-to-date training. They are clear about the risks posed in the immediate community and more widely across the city. Staff are vigilant in identifying any causes for concern, for instance signs of neglect, domestic abuse or female genital mutilation. This includes understanding the ‘Prevent’ duty, which helps staff identify potential signs of radicalisation and extremism. Pupils receive a wealth of information on how they can keep themselves safe in school and in the wider community. They are clear that there is an adult they can talk to, should they be concerned about anything. Pupils know how to keep safe when using the internet and are clear about what constitutes bullying. They say that on the rare occasion when pupils are unkind to each other, teachers quickly and efficiently deal with it. During the inspection, pupils visited the ‘life bus’ on site to learn about keeping themselves safe in modern society.
