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

Grange Primary School is a happy, inclusive school that places a high priority on the well-being of its pupils. The school is at the heart of the community it serves and the governing body and leadership team, along with all staff and stakeholders, work together to effectively focus on the needs of the pupils and their families. Pupils feel safe in school and know whom to ask for help should they need it. They show high levels of interest in their lessons and enjoy the many authentic activities they participate in, such as designing ice cream sundaes for a local café to sell and sharing in part of the profits to fund a range of further enterprise events. Staff promote a high level of support and care for pupils in all aspects of school life. The positive relationships between pupils and staff encourage all pupils to show a responsible attitude in lessons and demonstrate excellent behaviour around the school. Teaching helps pupils to make good progress in literacy and mathematics. As they move through the school, most pupils develop their reading skills effectively and by Year 6 read fluently with good understanding. Many staff use questioning well to develop pupils’ understanding of concepts. However, the quality of feedback from teachers and the challenge provided by some activities does not always help pupils to improve and refine their work in independent tasks. Senior leaders set a clear vision for the school to help create a caring and supportive environment that encourages all pupils to give of their best. Leaders and staff are making good progress towards implementing a curriculum that is real and reflects the needs of the community. They have invested well to make beneficial changes to the inside environments. Governors provide knowledgeable and committed support for the school and question leaders effectively. However, leaders do not always focus sharply enough on ensuring that self-evaluation activities identify all the priorities for improvement that will impact on pupils’ learning.
