This School Guide heat map has been plotted using official pupil data taken from the Pupil Level Annual School Census collected by the Welsh Government. The data tells us where pupils lived at the time of the last Pupil 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 areas from which pupils are admitted to a school can change from year to year to reflect the number of siblings and pupils admitted under high priority admissions criteria.

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

Undy Primary School is a vibrant, inclusive school that places a high priority on the well-being of its pupils. The dedicated headteacher has established a highly positive ethos, which is based on a culture of self-reflection, high expectations and inclusion. Leaders and staff provide exceptional levels of care, support and guidance for pupils across the school. They recognise each pupil as an individual and, when appropriate, provide additional support that meets their needs successfully. During their time in school, most pupils make effective progress in their learning across the curriculum and particularly strong progress in improving their listening and speaking skills. The school fosters an ambitious Welsh ethos where the appreciation of Welsh language and culture is highly valued. Nearly all staff are proactive in the development of Welsh language and incorporate Welsh skilfully into daily lessons. As a result, most pupils advance their Welsh language skills successfully. They are highly motivated to speak during Welsh lessons, around the school and at home. Nearly all pupils behave well and show consideration for each other. For example, pupils involved in leadership groups listen to the opinions and ideas of others effectively and make useful improvements to the school in response. Staff have created an engaging learning environment where all pupils experience a range of interesting activities including sports or learning to play an instrument. Pupils have many valuable opportunities to learn through practical activities and first-hand experiences. However, in a minority of lessons, staff keep younger pupils sitting at desks or on the carpet for too long. As a result, a minority of pupils lose interest and miss out on valuable opportunities to learn through play and exploration.
