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. Based on the evidence gathered during this short inspection, I am of the opinion that the school has demonstrated strong practice and marked improvement in certain areas. This may indicate that the school is improving towards being outstanding. Therefore, I am recommending that the school’s next inspection be a section 5 inspection. The school is an impressive, continually improving and very caring place to learn. Its inclusive and compassionate Christian ethos is very evident. Under your clear and ambitious leadership, pupils are positively challenged every day. They are well taught and cared for by a very dedicated and effective team of staff. This team will not accept second best or low expectations for anyone. Morale is high. A resolute and determined culture, in a calm and kind atmosphere, pervades the school. Governors also expect highly of the pupils and staff, making a clear contribution to the school’s success. Together, you have successfully addressed the next steps recommended at the last short inspection. Much of pupils’ work is highly accomplished. For instance, I saw that pupils in all classes write very proficiently. Their writing is typically accurate, interesting and fit for purpose. Pupils present their work tidily. They use grammar and vocabulary very thoughtfully. Among other examples of the high standards I noted were pupils’ scientific knowledge, which was strong throughout the school; and older pupils’ singing and musicality, as shown by a difficult piece in two-part harmony which they sung beautifully and accurately.
