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

Horton Grange Primary School is much larger than the average-sized primary school. The vast majority of pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of disadvantaged pupils, those supported through the pupil premium, is higher than the national average. The pupil premium is additional government funding to support pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and children who are looked after by the local authority. The proportion of disabled pupils and those with special educational needs is above the national average. There is a much larger proportion of pupils than is usual who enter and leave the school at other times than at the start and end of the school year. The school meets the government’s current floor standards, which are the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in English and mathematics, by the end of Year 6. The school provides before- and after-school clubs and a range of extra tuition sessions. There are links with pre-school provision on site. This provision for two-year-old children was registered with Ofsted in April 2014. This child care is inspected separately by Ofsted. Early years provision is part time for Nursery and full time for Reception. The executive headteacher leads two schools: Horton Grange and Copthorne Primary School in Bradford. The executive headteacher is a National Leader in Education. He is the co-chair of the Bradford Primary Improvement Partnership. He also leads Exceed (in Bradford) Teaching School Alliance. There is a head of school on site who is in charge of Horton Grange Primary School on a day-to-day basis. She is a member of the Bradford Safeguarding Children’s Board. She is also accredited to deliver training to senior leaders through the National College. The school leads on School Direct salaried and non-salaried recruitment for the Exceed in Bradford Teaching School Alliance. The Chair and vice-chair of the Governing Body are both National Leaders in Governance. The school’s recent developments are the provision for two-year-olds, the new school library and the outdoor refurbishment. The school’s recent accreditations include: A School of Sanctuary, Investors in Pupils, ICT Mark, Healthy School status, International Schools Status, The Stephen Lawrence Award Standard for Race, Equality and Diversity Level 2, Investors in People (Gold) and the Drugs Chartermark.
