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

Ysgol Llanrug is situated in one of the most Welsh-speaking parts of Wales and, as a result, pupils develop to become natural, rich Welsh speakers. Pupils who are latecomers to the school are immersed in the language and quickly develop to become fluent speakers. A familial ethos permeates the school, which is a notable element with everyone taking pride in their school and their community. Pupils behave very well and treat others with modest courtesy and respect. Most pupils make sound progress in developing their literacy, numeracy and digital skills. They concentrate for extended periods from a very early age and show a mature understanding of all elements of school life. Their engagement and perseverance towards tasks are good. Teachers work together effectively to provide a balanced curriculum across the classes. A strong element of consistency permeates staff’s teaching methods, they plan together and set shared expectations in terms of attainment. They provide a wide range of interesting learning experiences which inspire pupils to continue with their education at home. Teachers have an excellent working relationship with pupils, they care and respect them. They prepare appropriate learning areas that are attractive and encourage pupils’ curiosity. However, they do not plan enough opportunities for pupils to develop their independent learning skills. Learning assistants support pupils’ progress very skilfully and provide purposeful guidance that meets the needs of individuals and groups of learners. The headteacher has a clear vision for the school, which is based firmly on Welshness, pupils’ well-being and maintaining standards. Other leaders support the headteacher well. Members of the governing body fulfil their roles intelligently. They have a very good awareness of the school’s activities and use their expertise effectively for the benefit of pupils. They ensure that the school’s safeguarding procedures are in place, that the building is looked after and that the best use is made of funding. They have a very good awareness of the school’s priorities and are developing their ability to work alongside staff to evaluate provision effectively. Their support reinforces the family caring ethos that is associated with the school.
