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

Ysgol Ein Harglwyddes is a voluntary aided Catholic school in Bangor in Gwynedd local authority. The school serves the Roman Catholic parishes of Bangor, Bethesda, Porthaethwy and Llangefni, and a few pupils travel significant distances to get to school. There are 126 pupils on roll, including 11 part-time nursery pupils. Pupils are taught in four mixed age classes. Around 14% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is lower than the Welsh average of 19%. The school states that 41% of pupils are on the additional needs register and this is considerably above the national average of 21%. The majority of pupils are from ethnic groups other than white British and, as a result, the school has a high percentage (66%) of pupils for whom English is an additional language. Only a very few pupils speak Welsh at home. The school was last inspected in September 2011 and the headteacher has been in post since 2015. Further information is available from the Welsh Government My Local School website at the link below. http://mylocalschool.wales.gov.uk/Schools/SchoolSearch?lang=en 1 A report on Ysgol Ein Harglwyddes Ebrill 2018 Summary Leaders work well together and have established a caring ethos along with a successful focus on ensuring that pupils achieve well by the time they leave the school. Effective quality improvement procedures have ensured sustained progress over time in standards, provision and leadership. A clear strength is the way the school develops the literacy skills of the high percentage of pupils who have English as an additional language. Most pupils enter the school with skills that are below the expected level for their age. By the time they leave school, nearly all pupils make strong progress and achieve well from their starting points. Standards of wellbeing and pupils’ attitudes to learning are good.
