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

Brookvale High School converted to become an academy school in July 2012 and is run by the Brookvale Education Trust. When its predecessor school, Brookvale High School, was last inspected by Ofsted in 2010, it was judged to be good overall. The school is situated on the north west edge of Leicester and shares the same campus as Groby Community College, which is the partner upper school. The school mainly serves the local villages around the Groby area, although a significant number of students come from the city of Leicester. The school is larger than the average middle-deemed-secondary school. The school was built in 1975 and has been extensively refurbished. The large majority of students are from White British backgrounds. A small number come from minority ethnic backgrounds, principally from an Indian heritage. The proportion of students who speak English as an additional language is well below average. A smaller-than-average proportion of students are supported by the pupil premium, which provides additional funding for children in local authority care, students with a parent in the armed forces and students known to be eligible for free school meals. The proportion of pupils supported through school action is below average. So, too, is the proportion supported at school action plus or with a statement of special educational needs. No students study alternative courses on other sites, although a couple of classes are taught by teachers from Groby Community College.
