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. You lead the school with passion and determination to provide the best possible education for the pupils in your care. You have developed a strong and supportive staff team, ably supported by senior leaders and the Medway Anglican School’s Trust. Staff, parents and carers, governors and the trust acknowledge the stability and improvements that your leadership has brought to the school. You are acutely aware of the school’s priorities and have worked closely with the trust to establish an effective plan for achieving further improvement. In doing so, you have created a culture of high expectations. As a result, pupils are motivated and challenged to achieve their best. Staff who responded to the Ofsted survey are overwhelmingly positive. They are proud to work at the school and enjoy being part of the team. You make staff development a constant priority, providing helpful opportunities for staff to strengthen their expertise. They benefit from a wide range of training, both within the school and across the trust. Your skilful pairing of newly appointed staff with more experienced teachers is helping to further strengthen the quality of teaching. The majority of parents are positive about the school. They feel very involved in their children’s education and are well supported in how to continue their children’s learning at home. They appreciate the frequent opportunities to visit the school and see their children’s work for themselves. Several parents spoke of the school’s family-orientated approach, and one parent commented, ‘The school provides a happy and friendly environment that promotes safe learning.’ Pupils are polite and respectful towards staff and each other. Pupils who responded to Ofsted’s online survey agree that they enjoy school and teachers help them to do their best. The atmosphere around the school is calm and positive, reflecting the school’s values of ‘achieve, respect, include, support and enjoy’. Staff know pupils extremely well. This enables staff to plan learning effectively to suit particular needs. As a result, pupils are keen to engage and show determination to succeed in their learning. They enthusiastically respond with ‘Bring it on!’ when presented with challenges in class. However, the most able pupils do not achieve as well in reading and writing as they do in mathematics. Too few pupils are working at greater depth in these subjects. You care deeply for the pupils at the school and are committed to supporting them to attend regularly. You are aware that attendance for disadvantaged pupils is below the national average and are tireless in your efforts to address this. Sensible steps to improve this aspect are in place. The school’s pupil/family support worker is engaging families effectively where persistent absence is an issue. Nevertheless, this work is at an early stage, and more is needed to ensure that all groups of pupils attend regularly. Safeguarding is effective. You have developed a strong culture of safeguarding through a combination of regular staff training, positive relationships and detailed knowledge of the pupils in the school. The school carries out relevant checks to ensure the suitability of staff to work with children. All staff, including governors and trustees, receive annual safeguarding training, and the trust provides further update training regularly. Policies are suitably comprehensive and checked frequently by the trust. Staff are confident in using the required procedures for reporting concerns. The pupil/family support worker follows up any concerns swiftly and provides helpful support and guidance to parents and children when needed. Pupils reported that they feel safe at school and are confident that adults will help them if they have a problem. Pupils are taught well about staying safe online and know how to report concerns when using the internet. Behaviour around the school is generally good, and pupils feel that there are few incidents of bullying. Most parents agree that the school’s staff make sure that pupils are well behaved. Inspection findings At the start of the inspection, we agreed that we would focus in particular on: the actions leaders are taking to improve pupils’ outcomes in reading and writing, following the dip at the end of key stage 2 in 2017; how effectively leaders are making use of additional funding to accelerate progress for disadvantaged pupils; the achievement of the most able pupils; and how effectively the trust is supporting the school to develop further. You responded promptly to the dip in reading and writing outcomes in key stage 2 in 2017, analysing clearly the reasons behind these disappointing outcomes.
