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. You, together with governors and staff have continued to work closely as a team to ensure that children are safe and have the good quality of education they deserve. The previous inspection found that there was further work to do to develop pupils’ writing in subjects other than English. You have made improvements in subjects across the curriculum. As a result, pupils’ writing has improved because they practise writing routinely in a range of different subjects. Work on display and in pupils’ books shows that they take care to present their work neatly and carefully. The senior leadership team has worked with middle leaders to develop an interesting curriculum that engages pupils’ interests and includes a wide variety of subjects. Specialist teachers, including in art, music and Spanish, have a positive impact on pupils’ learning. Pupils clearly enjoy these subjects, especially Spanish. Since the last inspection, you have worked effectively to improve the quality of teaching and learning. In particular, you have successfully improved the outcomes of disadvantaged pupils by the end of Year 6. The school is a strong community where teaching, learning and care for children and their families is at the heart of its work. Leaders, governors, staff and pupils are committed to the school’s aims, ‘We care, we share, we believe, we achieve’. Pupils have a very good understanding of British values, and speak knowledgeably about individual liberty and democracy. Pupils show respect towards each other and adults in lessons and around the school. They are friendly and generally conduct themselves very sensibly. The school has strong links with outside agencies beyond your community and you use their expertise very well to support vulnerable children and their families. This has made a real difference to pupils’ lives. The school environment is stimulating and encourages learning. Pupils respect all areas of their school and value the school’s resources. You have been particularly creative in developing the use of the playground space. Each class has its own area, including its own piece of garden where the pupils learn to cultivate flowers. Pupils confirmed that they enjoy the different activities that they can choose at breaktimes. Activities include colouring, ball games and performing in a covered area designed by the pupils. Safeguarding is effective. School leaders, including the governing body, have ensured that all staff know and understand their responsibilities and the part they play in safeguarding pupils’ welfare. The leadership team has made sure that the school’s safeguarding procedures are robust and records are detailed and of high quality. Staff and governors have received relevant, up-to-date training, including on child protection, female genital mutilation and the ‘Prevent’ duty. Pre-employment checks follow current guidance. Referrals to external agencies are made swiftly, and records show that action to safeguard pupils’ welfare is followed up thoroughly. The school works effectively with parents to keep their children safe. Leaders provide parents with clear information. Parents are invited to attend specialist family support sessions, which focus on developing positive parenting skills and are available on two days each week. Through assemblies and in lessons, pupils learn about risks to their safety and how to keep themselves safe from harm in a variety of situations. You have a thorough approach to risk assessment, which is implemented for all school trips. This ensures that the school’s high expectations for keeping pupils safe in school are maintained when pupils are off site on outings. Parents who responded to Ofsted’s online survey, Parent View, are confident that the school is well led and managed and that their children are safe in the school. Inspection findings The first line of enquiry for the inspection focused on safeguarding and, in particular, the welfare of pupils who are frequently absent from school. This is because there has been a high rate of persistent absence over recent years for pupils who have special educational needs and/or disabilities. You check pupils’ attendance rates closely throughout the year. Leaders pay particular attention to pupils’ attendance at the beginning and end of each term. Any pattern of unusual absence is followed up immediately.
