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

Leaders have high aspirations for all pupils at Regents Park Community Primary School. The school motto ‘believe in yourself, anything is possible’ is at the heart of this school’s work. Pupils are happy and safe. They enjoy coming to school and say that bullying is not accepted at the school. Pupils say that teachers act quickly to resolve any concerns. Leaders make sure that pupils have the academic knowledge and personal development to prepare them for the next stage of their learning. Pupils enjoy reading. The school library, reading ambassadors and reading challenge activities promote a love of reading. Pupils are excited now that wider curriculum opportunities and clubs are being reinstated. Pupils are proud of their school. They take ownership of the school’s rules and know what is expected of them. Leaders ensure pupils’ behaviour is managed consistently and fairly across the school. Parents and carers are overwhelmingly positive about the school. One parent’s comment was typical of many when they said, ‘Staff are very kind, helpful and approachable. I love how leaders are at the school gate welcoming children and parents to school every day.’ What does the school do well and what does it need to do better? Leaders have planned an ambitious curriculum for pupils. It is adapted to meet the needs of all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Curriculum leaders ensure that teachers have the subject knowledge they need to teach each subject. Teachers teach pupils the vocabulary needed to deepen learning. Teachers check pupils’ learning often and provide effective support to pupils and challenge any misconceptions. Good communication between home and school helps children in the early years settle well to school life. They develop positive attitudes to learning. Staff have high expectations of them. There is a strong focus on early language and communication skills. Adults model these extremely well. Teachers plan learning activities that are well matched to children’s needs. Children enjoy learning about number through songs, rhymes and practical activities. Leaders prioritise reading. The reading curriculum is well planned. Staff make sure that reading books match the sounds that children learn. Recent improvements to the teaching of early reading are highly effective. Children learn to read words and simple sentences accurately because teachers teach phonics well. Pupils read to adults regularly in school. Parents value the support they receive to help their children to read at home. Leaders ensure a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction books are available to pupils. Disruption to school life, as a result of the pandemic, meant some pupils fell behind in reading. Leaders have increased the level of support to those pupils who are still finding reading more difficult. Most subjects are taught very well. This is because curriculum plans are carefully sequenced. These curriculum plans ensure that pupils build up knowledge over time. Subject leaders are enthusiastic and check on pupils’ learning. Mathematics is consistently well taught. Pupils enjoy mathematics. Curriculum plans in some subjects, such as Spanish, music and computing, are less developed. Leaders have prioritised work to develop these subjects. Disadvantaged pupils and those with SEND do well in school. Leaders check that provision for all pupils with SEND is effective. Staff say they are supported to ensure pupils’ needs are fully met. Parents are positive about the support their children receive. The curriculum helps pupils develop their personal character. Pupils are determined to do their best. Opportunities such as reading ambassadors and peer mediators allow pupils to take on responsibilities. In doing so, they develop confidence and communication skills. In personal, social and health education lessons, pupils confidently share ideas and feelings. They listen to and value the opinions of others. Pupils are motivated by school rewards such as pupil of the week and the achievement cup. They enjoy competing in sports competitions, debates and mathematics challenges with other schools. Governors know Regents Park Community Primary School well. They have an accurate view of the school and hold leaders to account. Staff feel supported by leaders who manage their workload effectively.
