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 Llanddoged is under the voluntary control of the Church in Wales, and is situated in the centre of the village of Llanddoged. Welsh is the main medium of the school’s work. There are 44 pupils between three and eleven years old on roll, including four part-time nursery age children. They are divided into three mixed-age classes. Very few pupils are eligible for free school meals. This is significantly lower than the national percentage. Approximately 66% of pupils come from Welsh-speaking homes, and very few are from ethnic minority backgrounds. The school has identified 33% of its pupils as having additional learning needs, but very few have a statement of special educational needs. The headteacher was appointed to the post in September 1996, and the school was last inspected in May 2012. 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 Llanddoged October 2017 Summary The headteacher and staff succeed in creating a homely and inclusive ethos for pupils, and provide effective care, support and guidance. Most pupils, including those who receive additional support, make sound progress in their learning during their time at the school. Pupils enjoy coming to school and most have positive attitudes towards learning. They are very caring towards each other, and treat adults and visitors with a high level of respect and maturity. There is an effective working relationship between adults and pupils, which fosters a purposeful learning environment. The school provides a range of valuable and exciting learning experiences; however, there are not enough opportunities for pupils to develop their numeracy and information and communication technology (ICT) skills across the curriculum. Most parents are very supportive of the school and praise the homely ethos that exists. However, communication processes between the school and parents are not effective enough. The leadership does not ensure that provision and teaching stretch pupils of all abilities so that they achieve to the best of their ability. Governors are very supportive of the school, but they do not challenge the school robustly enough as critical friends.
