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

Weddington Primary School is larger than the average-sized primary school. There have been significant staff changes since the school’s last inspection in 2016. The headteacher, the deputy headteacher and the special educational needs coordinator joined the school in September 2017. There has been a turnover of staff in the past. The majority of pupils are White British. The proportion of pupils who are disadvantaged and eligible for the pupil premium is lower than the national average. The number of pupils with SEND attending the mainstream school has significantly increased very recently. The proportion of pupils with support for their SEND and those who have education, health and care plans is above the national average. The school has a resourced provision for pupils with speech, language and communication needs. This is due to close in July 2019. Inspection report: Weddington Primary School, 2–3 April 2019 Page 10 of 12 Information about this inspection Inspectors observed learning across all year groups. Some of the observations were carried out jointly with the headteacher and deputy headteacher. They also undertook learning walks jointly with leaders as well as a detailed scrutiny of pupils’ work across a range of subjects. Inspectors held meetings with the headteacher and senior and middle leaders. The lead inspector met with the chair of the governing body, three other governors and the school’s improvement adviser. Inspectors talked with pupils informally at playtimes, visited the dining hall at lunchtime and observed pupils’ movements around the school. A formal meeting also took place with pupils. Inspectors looked at behaviour at the start of the school day, during lessons and during breaktimes and lunchtimes. Inspectors listened to pupils read and talked to them about the books they enjoyed and those that they are currently reading. Inspectors spoke with parents at the start of the school day. They took account of the 62 responses to Ofsted’s online parental questionnaire, Parent View, and the 54 freetext responses. Additionally, they took account of the 27 responses to Ofsted’s staff survey. A range of documents were scrutinised by inspectors, including information about pupils’ attendance, self-evaluation information, improvement plans, safeguarding records, pupil premium and sports strategies, minutes of governing body meetings and staff development records.
