What the school says...
Rushcliffe School was congratulated by Rt Hon David Laws, Minister of State for Schools, for the exceptional progress made by all pupils, from key stage 2 to key stage 4, placing it in the top 100 schools for progress (letter 2013). However, Rushcliffe School offers more than academic success as it values the development of the whole person, whatever their skill or talent. The school motto 'Everyone at Rushcliffe School will be given the chance to shine brightly' supports this philosophy. Pupils are offered a huge range of extra curricular opportunities in for example sport and the arts and all pupil successes are celebrated. ...Read more

Interpreting catchment maps
The maps show in colour where the pupils at a school came from*. Red = most pupils to Blue = fewest.
Where the map is not coloured we have no record in the previous three years of any pupils being admitted from that location based on the options chosen.
For help and explanation of our catchment maps see: Catchment maps explained
Further reading
If there are more applicants to a school than it has places for, who gets in is determined by which applicants best fulfil the admissions criteria.
Admissions criteria are often complicated, and may change from year to year. The best source of information is usually the relevant local authority website, but once you have set your sights on a school it is a good idea to ask them how they see things panning out for the year that you are interested in.
Many schools admit children based on distance from the school or a fixed catchment area. For such schools, the cut-off distance will vary from year to year, especially if the school give priority to siblings, and the pattern will be of a central core with outliers (who will mostly be siblings). Schools that admit on the basis of academic or religious selection will have a much more scattered pattern.
*The coloured areas outlined in black are Census Output Areas. These are made up of a group of neighbouring postcodes, which accounts for their odd shapes. These provide an indication, but not a precise map, of the school’s catchment: always refer to local authority and school websites for precise information.
The 'hotter' the colour the more children have been admitted.
