This School Guide heat map has been plotted using official pupil data taken from the Pupil Level Annual School Census collected by the Welsh Government. The data tells us where pupils lived at the time of the last Pupil 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 areas from which pupils are admitted to a school can change from year to year to reflect the number of siblings and pupils admitted under high priority admissions criteria.

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 headteacher, supported by the governing body, provides strong leadership and promotes a clear vision for all learners and staff. Leaders have created a positive learning environment that promotes inclusion, well-being, and an ethos of mutual respect. Staff are supported well through professional development, to set high expectations for learners’ progress and to develop practices that meet the needs of nearly all learners. Robust self-evaluation activities allow leaders to accurately identify strengths and plan for areas for development. The headteacher seeks the views of all stakeholders and monitors the progress and impact of all improvement strategies well. One example of effective practice is how the head teacher has successfully engaged staff and parents in the process of creating a vision for the Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) curriculum. Parents appreciate that their views and opinions matter and value the contributions they make to improving the school’s provision. The school has made effective progress in developing a broad and inclusive curriculum. 'Curriculum for Christchurch’ provides many opportunities for pupils to engage in a range of stimulating learning experiences that enable pupils to enjoy their learning and develop their skills. The school curriculum reflects the diverse nature of the school. Teachers provide many opportunities for pupils to develop an understanding of different cultures, and this a strength of the school. The relationships between all members of the school community reflect the kind, caring and positive ethos of the school. Nearly all pupils enjoy being at Christchurch Church in Wales school. They behave exceptionally well and show respect for each other, staff, and visitors. From low starting points when they join the school, nearly all pupils make strong progress in nearly all areas of learning. As they move through the school, their language and digital skills develop well and they apply these successfully to other areas of the curriculum. However, pupils are not always given purposeful opportunities to apply their numeracy skills in real life contexts, especially in the older year groups. Nearly all pupils have positive attitudes and enjoy learning Welsh. They make strong progress in developing their Welsh skills and are increasingly confident communicating in Welsh.
