“All offered” means the published group had places for all eligible applicants; its distance is not a cut-off for admission.
Distances are in miles (mi), as in the map app. PAN is the published admission number. Bands and admission groups have separate criteria; school-wide places, applications and offers are not counts for each band. Past offers are a guide, not a promise of a place.
Admissions capped for September 2026.
