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 previous inspection. The senior leadership team has been restructured and you have successfully recruited two assistant headteachers. You have been proactive and successful in developing these committed, highly effective leaders. As a result of this, the capacity of the leadership team to continue to improve the school is strong. The school community values your leadership. Parents, staff and pupils have confidence in you. You have a strong but calming influence within the school. As a result of this and the work of other leaders and governors, there is a highly positive climate for learning evident across the school. Governors know the school well. They fulfil their statutory duties and provide strong support to the school. The recent recruitment of new governors has enhanced the collective skill set of governors. This has led to an increased determination to challenge the work of leaders as well as supporting their achievements. Adults have high expectations for pupils in terms of behaviour and outcomes. Pupils are enthusiastic, confident learners. They work hard in lessons and try to do their best. They work well together and learn from each other as well as from the adults they work with. Pupils are friendly, welcoming and keen to talk about their school and their learning. Most parents are positive about the school’s work. You have made progress with the areas identified for improvement at the previous inspection. However, your incisive self-evaluation confirms my view that there is still room for improvement. In particular, leadership of the early years provision needs further strengthening. The quality of teaching across the school has improved since the previous inspection and is continuing to improve. Teachers are reflective and have responded positively to the professional development you have secured for them. As a result, they are developing pupils’ thinking, speaking and collaborative learning skills. Staff are becoming highly skilled at enabling pupils to talk about their learning and about strategies that help them learn best. You recognise that teachers need to develop further their skills at teaching mathematics to ensure that all groups of pupils make the best progress that they can. Safeguarding is effective. The leadership team has ensured that all safeguarding arrangements are fit for purpose and records are detailed and of high quality. You and your staff ensure that keeping children safe lies at the heart of the school’s work. Staff receive training on all aspects of safeguarding, including radicalisation, extremism and female genital mutilation. Adults are vigilant and report any concerns immediately to leaders. Designated safeguarding leads take swift, effective action when staff report concerns about a child. They work well with external agencies and challenge them if responses to referrals are not rapid enough. Pupils benefit from good guidance on how to keep themselves safe online. Leaders respond quickly to any concerns raised regarding cyber bullying or to the downloading of inappropriate material. They seek guidance from the local police force to ensure that older pupils in the school understand the implications of, for example, downloading apps to their mobile telephones. Pupils of all ages contribute to displays around the school which remind them how to keep themselves safe in all situations both at home and at school. You make sure that all appropriate checks are made on staff who come to work at the school. Governors monitor the records of these checks. Inspection findings My first focus for the inspection was to review pupils’ progress in mathematics. In 2016, pupils who left the school made good progress in mathematics overall, but their performance was not as strong as in reading and writing.
