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 leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. Leaders at all levels are contributing to the school’s continuing success in ensuring good outcomes for pupils. In this small school, with several areas of responsibility, your assistant headteacher and middle leaders make a good contribution to school improvement. They have strong subject knowledge and a clear understanding of the national expectations for pupils across the whole curriculum. They show a commitment to constantly updating and improving their own practice to support pupils well in their learning. You value the strong partnerships you have with the governors, schools in the Education Ossett Community Trust (EOCT) and the local authority. Governors and school leaders value the strong support they receive from the local authority school improvement adviser. You use this support and guidance well to support your evaluations of the school and when deciding your priorities for improvement. Governors have a clear understanding of their role in checking the quality of education provided. They are extremely supportive of the school’s work, but not afraid to challenge when any aspects are not as strong as they could be. You have built a culture where every child is listened to and valued. A strong sense of community comes across clearly from your pupils, parents, governors and staff. Pupils speak warmly about the support and care the staff provide. Staff encourage them to do their best and pupils are keen to help others. In a phonics group, when one child was unsure, another child said, ‘Come on. You can do it!’ Pupils are eager to please and their behaviour is excellent. With your team, you have successfully addressed key areas for improvement from the last inspection. Leaders and staff have a much better understanding of pupils’ achievement and progress in reading, writing and mathematics. Staff are confident in presenting this information to governors, who in turn ask probing questions about the performance of groups of pupils. In the classroom, staff use the information well to direct pupils’ next steps accurately. Pupils’ work demonstrates that they know how to edit and improve their learning. Pupils respond well to the clear direction given. Pupils’ work and school assessment information show that staff now support lowerand middle-ability pupils well in their writing. You agree that there is still more work to be done to help the most able pupils improve their writing and reach higher standards. We discussed the improvements that have been made to learning in the early years. Pupils achieve well overall by the end of Year 2, but the pace of learning slows as children move from the early years curriculum to the national curriculum in Year 1. Safeguarding is effective. All staff are clear on how to recognise concerns and whom to speak to if a child raises a concern. Information is carefully recorded and of high quality. It is responded to appropriately and monitored closely by the designated safeguarding lead and deputy. Work with external agencies is successful in supporting pupils and their families. All staff have recently updated their safeguarding training online, but a small number of staff were not aware of the document, ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ (September 2016). You have plans in place to make sure that all staff understand the document and relevant aspects of it are included more explicitly within the curriculum. Pupils say that they are taught to keep safe in a number of ways. Teaching and guidance include work on keeping safe online, road safety and fire safety. The school uses a number of external visitors, such as the local police, to support this work. Pupils know that they can approach any member of staff for help if they need it and speak confidently about the good support they receive.
