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 have effectively managed a period of significant change since the previous inspection. This includes considerable building work to link together two separate school buildings that had accommodated the key stage 1 and key stage 2 departments. During this time, you have successfully galvanised two groups of staff to become one strong staff team across the whole school. You have effectively shared with staff and governors your vision that pupils at Barton Seagrave will learn, not only academic skills, but skills such as confidence and resilience that will stand them in good stead for life. This is reflected in your school motto, „to educate children to confidently face the future‟. Staff have engaged with this because you communicate well with them, ensuring that they receive high-quality professional development and establishing an ethos where staff are proud to work at Barton Seagrave School. At the time of the previous inspection, inspectors noted that pupils behaved very well and were keen to learn. This has remained the case. During my visit to classrooms and as I observed pupils around school, it was evident that they are well mannered and behave very well both in class and as they move around school. Pupils told me that behaviour is good, but that if any pupil did not behave as well as expected, they were confident that an adult in school would address it fairly.

“Poor management alongside a very bad experience - avoid at all costs.”

"> Very bad experience that ended in us removing our child from the school. Very poor headmaster in my opinion who you will only see on the introduction day. I raised a serious concern about a teacher but the headmaster showed absolutely no impartiality when we raised our concerns and refused to accept there was an issue. We ended up changing school which was in complete contrast and we haven't had one single issue going forward. We chased BSPS to forward schoolwork but nothing came through to the new school. They didn't even check to see if the welfare of our child was ok and he was settling into his new school. Very poorly managed and you should avoid at all costs.
