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

Fleur-De-Lys Primary School is part of the Fleur-De-Lys and Pengam Federation. It is a vibrant and nurturing school where pupils feel valued and supported by staff. As a result, nearly all pupils approach school life with enthusiasm and show positive attitudes towards their learning, each other, and their school community. During their time at the school, most pupils make good progress from their starting points, including those pupils with additional learning needs. Pupils of all ages are becoming confident mathematicians and their digital skills are developing well across the school. While pupils’ writing skills are developing suitably, they do not always write well enough at length particularly across the curriculum. Pupils use of the Welsh language is strong across the school, and in a few instances teachers seize opportunities to further develop these skills alongside other curriculum experiences, for example when learning British Sign Language. Overall, pupils benefit from an engaging curriculum that encourages an interest in their local area and the diverse nature of Wales. Staff know their children well. They work diligently to support the needs of all pupils, including those who require additional help. Occasionally, staff are too eager to intervene and over-direct pupils’ learning. As a result, pupils become less independent as they are not always challenged well enough to develop their own thinking or reflect carefully enough on their learning. Pupils have many opportunities to take on leadership roles and pupil voice groups work closely with governors and the federation. These groups ensure that pupils have a strong voice in the school, for example where super ambassadors work effectively to raise awareness of the rights of the child across the school. Leaders have developed a strong culture of mutual support and collaboration across the school and the federation. Staff work with dedication to ensure that pupils experience a wide range of learning opportunities in the classroom and outdoors. The extensive range of after-school clubs provided by staff further inspire pupils to develop new interests. As a result, nearly all pupils are happy and proud to attend Fleur-De-Lys Primary School.
