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 Talwrn is a naturally bilingual, community school maintained by Anglesey Local Authority (LA). It is located in the small village of Talwrn a few miles outside the county town of Llangefni in the middle of the Isle of Anglesey. The school serves the local village and rural community. The school describes the area as being relatively prosperous. There are 39 pupils and children aged 4 to 11 years old on the school roll. There is a class for the Foundation Phase/Key Stage 1 and a class for Key Stage 2. Pupils are admitted to the school on a full time basis following their fourth birthday. Ten per cent (10%) of the pupils are entitled to receive free school meals, which is much lower than the county and national averages. Six (15%) of the pupils have additional learning needs (ALN); no pupils have a statement of special educational needs (SEN). A hundred per cent (100%) of the pupils are from a white ethnic background. No pupil is learning English as an additional language. No pupil is looked after by the Unitary Authority. Approximately 51% of the pupils come from homes where Welsh is spoken. Thirty six per cent (36%) of the pupils do not speak Welsh at home but they do speak Welsh although not fluently. Thirteen per cent (13%) come from non-Welsh speaking homes and are not able to speak Welsh. Welsh is used as the medium of teaching until Year 2 and both Welsh and English are used as teaching media thereafter. The school was inspected in June 2005. The present head teacher has been in post since September 2006. In 2010-2011, the school’s per capita budget is £4,159, which compares with a maximum of £15,158 and a minimum of £2,685 for primary schools in Anglesey. Of the 52 primary schools in Anglesey, the school has the 21st highest budget per pupil.
