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

The academy is slightly smaller than the average-sized primary phased academies or schools. The large majority of pupils are from White British backgrounds. A small minority come from minority ethnic groups. Few pupils speak English as an additional language. The proportion of pupils for whom the pupil premium provides support is below average. This is additional funding to support pupils known to be eligible for free school meals and looked after children. The proportion of disabled pupils and those who have special educational needs is average. The academy meets the government’s current floor standards, which set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress in reading, writing and mathematics at the end of Year 6. The academy is part of various networks with other academies and schools. These partnerships provide opportunities for joint staff training and professional development for leaders. The early years provision comprises a Reception class for four-year-olds, who all attend full-time. Senior leaders have an arrangement for alternative provision with Dorothy Goodman Special School who they send a few pupils to on a part-time basis. The academy runs its own breakfast club that is managed by the governing body. There has been some staffing turbulence in the last three years at senior leadership level. Due to the success of the school prior to becoming an academy, a number of senior leaders have left the academy following promotion. Consequently, the headteacher has regularly recruited new members of the senior leadership team. Also, the Early Years Foundation Stage Leader is currently on maternity leave and has been replaced by the former deputy headteacher who has returned to the academy following her maternity leave. The Academy’s Home School Association (HSA) organises events to raise additional funds for the academy. Lady Jane Grey Academy converted to become an academy on October 1 2012. When its predecessor school, Lady Jane Grey Primary School was last inspected by Ofsted, it was judged to be outstanding overall.
