Reading these figures

  • “All offered” means every applicant who named the school was offered a place that year, so there was no cut-off.
  • A dash means the council published no distance for that school and year: it may have filled on other rules, such as faith or banding.
  • Distances move every year with sibling numbers and year-group size. Check several years, and the council’s admission arrangements for the year you apply.
