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

Pupils are proud members of the school community. They show great respect towards each other and celebrate everyone’s differences. They are happy and safe. No one is afraid to be themself because they know that they will be accepted. Behaviour in class and around the school is calm. There is no disruption to learning. Experienced staff help any pupils who struggle with their behaviour to self-regulate. Bullying of any kind is extremely rare. When it does happen, pupils tell staff, who deal with it urgently. It is not repeated. Children in the early years enjoy their outside environment. They engage with purposeful learning activities across the provision. The two-year-olds in Nursery benefit from their interactions with older children. Pupils appreciate the new playground facilities. They make good use of the multi-use games area, their allotment and climbing equipment. There are many opportunities for pupils to develop their leadership skills and have their voice heard. Apart from the school council, there is also a junior leadership team. There are also house captains, ‘eco warriors’, prefects and the newly appointed pupil equality and diversity leader. The junior leadership team writes a newsletter which is sent home to families each term.

“So impressed!”

"> An excellent school. The principal is most certainly a breathe of fresh air. We have been to multiple schools both State and Private in the US, UK and others to name a few. They are conscious of their environment and excellent at dealing with any matters/ concerns that may come up. They have nurture lounges and a dedicated and supportive group of teachers. Programmes like the eco warriors and Nurture as well as a vast array of after school programmes (spaces are limited) however everyone gets at least one placement in a club. They offer computer clubs, tennis, dance, gymnastics, chess, football, rugby and many others. They encourage tolerance and create a safe, supportive environment for both students and parents alike. It is a multicultural school with children from every country imaginable. They have managed to create an incredibly dedicated and supportive environment where diversity seems to serve as a pro. Some schools often feel held back by having many children with English as a second language. Not here. The parents and faculty work well together. The Head teacher and Deputy Head greet and see off students and parents each day at the entrance and are quite familiar with their community, available it seems all the time for any concerns or issues or assistance you might need. The school fair is wonderful! The school grounds are surrounded with gardens and trees and it is a fun environment where students feel like they belong and are constantly encouraged to do their best and uphold the codes of conduct in a gentle and caring way.
