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

Pupils understand that leaders and staff want them to be successful. They know that high expectations are set. Pupils respond to this challenge by achieving well in their studies. An impressive range of additional clubs and activities is available at lunchtimes and after school. There really is something for everyone. The programme includes music, art, sports, languages, debating and volunteering. The opportunities encourage pupils to be ambitious, bold and independent. Pupils recognise, respect and celebrate the cultural diversity of their school community. They get on well with each other. They behave well in lessons and during social times. Pupils feel safe in school. They told us that bullying is dealt with quickly and effectively by staff. School records show that such incidents are rare. The school community celebrates the work done to promote respect for the rights of all. Pupils support their peers at a link school in Morocco. They raised funds to provide a new playground to keep children safe as they play. Students who joined the sixth form from other schools said that they soon felt that they belonged. This is because they were welcomed so warmly by everyone.

“Fab school!”

"> Burntwood is an amazing school that really cares about its pupils and brings out the best in them. There is a strong equality ethos, many extra curricular opportunities and excellent organisation. Pupils are respected and not treated like wild creatures that need to be oppressed as in many other schools. My 14 year old daughter actually enjoys going to school here which is saying something!
“Burntwood school review”

"> I attend to school at Burntwood, and I think it is great, although I have not been there a full year. Online I have seen some really nasty reviews, but although some of the facts are true, most are not. There are sometimes fights during break time but the teachers always sort them out quite quickly. The punishments for bullying are severe, but I don't think anybody has been expelled for bullying as it is always minor things like teasing people because the admin people at the school misspelled their name. The girls there are really nice and the facilities are great. I love this school and can't wait to move up into year 8!
