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.

How School Guide Rates Secondary Schools

For secondary schools in Wales, schools are rated on key performance indicators for pupils up to the age of 16 (GCSE only) due to the fact the government did not publish A level data for the last academic year.

School Description

Corpus Christi Catholic High School seeks to enrich pupils’ lives through faith and extremely high-quality care, support and guidance. This is a notable strength of the school and contributes positively to pupils’ well-being, behaviour and engagement in learning. Pupils enjoy being at school and achieve well. Senior leaders ensure that all members of the school community place pupil and staff well-being at the heart of all that they do. The school has developed strong relationships with a wide variety of partners to broker the best possible support for pupils. It has developed highly effective approaches to support pupils in overcoming barriers to learning. There are robust procedures in place that keep all pupils safe, and the culture of safeguarding permeates throughout the school. In collaboration with its partner primary schools, the school has developed a clear vision for the development of Curriculum for Wales. The importance of good teaching and subject knowledge is at the core of this vision and leaders are developing valuable learning opportunities for pupils. Generally, teachers have suitably high expectations for pupils and ensure helpful levels of challenge and support in the classroom. The curriculum provides appropriate opportunities for pupils to develop their literacy and numeracy skills. The provision for digital skills is at an early stage of development and currently the school does not promote the use of the Welsh language strongly enough in areas other than Welsh lessons. The school is well led and managed. Leaders have established a culture of collaboration and mutual respect based on Catholic values. They foster a sense of pride in the school that is shared by all staff and pupils and promote successfully a community where all are supported to achieve. The school has developed its processes for self-evaluation and planning for improvement suitably. However, a few aspects of self-evaluation lack precision, particularly in teaching and learning, and this means that departmental and wholeschool priorities for improvement tend to be too broad.
