This School Guide heat map has been plotted using official pupil data taken from the Pupil Level Annual School Census collected by the Welsh Government. The data tells us where pupils lived at the time of the last Pupil 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 areas from which pupils are admitted to a school can change from year to year to reflect the number of siblings and pupils admitted under high priority admissions criteria.

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

Nearly all pupils enjoy being at Clwyd Community Primary School and develop positive attitudes to learning. From relatively low starting points when they first join the school, they build a range of skills and strategies that supports them to make very good progress in most areas of learning and in their overall development as confident and ambitious young people. Pupils are proud to belong to the school and play a prominent role in influencing and shaping its life and work. Against the backdrop of the recent pandemic and the challenges that pupils and the community have faced, pupils’ progress and attitudes to learning are noteworthy. The school provides a rich, broad and balanced range of learning experiences and additional provision. This meets the educational and wider needs and interests of pupils very well. Teachers ensure that nearly all learning is purposeful and that, whenever possible, it enables pupils to use existing or newly learnt skills in real life contexts. This means that, as pupils move through the school, they develop a secure understanding of the relevance and importance of their learning. Teachers and support staff have very strong professional skills and knowledge. This includes specialist skills, for example in the school’s specialist teaching facilities that enable them to tailor provision to individual needs. Generally, teachers plan learning activities that challenge pupils at the right level. In a few instances, staff miss opportunities for younger pupils to learn through play and to develop their independence. The care, support and guidance provided for pupils are outstanding and support them to flourish at school. School leaders set a positive and ambitious tone for the school’s work. They place a high priority on supporting pupils and families to thrive. Partnerships with parents and specialist agencies are highly effective and make a profoundly positive difference to the school community. Leaders ensure that the school is inclusive, treating all pupils and all families with care, courtesy and respect through its actions and the opportunities it provides. School leaders promote collaboration and teamwork very well. This supports the school to plan and implement improvement strategy effectively. The school keeps its progress towards improvement goals under regular review although monitoring activity does not always focus sharply enough on the difference that this improvement work makes to pupils. Consequently, a few opportunities to drive further improvement in pupils’ skills, knowledge and understanding are occasionally missed.
