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 and the senior leaders have shaped a school in which pupils are happy and keen to learn. There is a strong culture of mutual respect and support, as well as high expectations. Staff and pupils embody the school’s values in their work and in their relationships with each other. You, the senior staff and the committed governing body have a clear vision for what you are trying to achieve for both pupils and the local community. Pupils’ behaviour is exemplary, and they learn in a calm, orderly environment. They are polite, friendly and articulate. During our visits to classrooms, the atmosphere was purposeful, with pupils working well together. Pupils told me how much they enjoy school. The school’s strong focus on supporting pupils’ social development is reflected well in the high levels of cooperation seen at playtime. Pupils take responsibility by being play leaders and organising lunchtime activities. Responses to Ofsted’s online questionnaires for parents and staff are positive. The majority of parents and carers who completed the online survey would recommend the school and appreciate the teaching and support their children receive. One parent said: ‘I have always felt that my child has been very well supported at Little Houghton School.’ However, a small number of parents expressed concerns about leaders’ communication and said that some matters have previously been unresolved.
