“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.

Community primary schools: "The LA uses the eastings and northings linked to an applicant's address to calculate a straight-line distance measurement to all of our community schools in Southwark, which is generated by our Capita pupil database" (council's "Admission arrangements for September 2026 intake" for community primary schools, section 1.1 note (e)). The same document adds that Ivydale Primary School (which has two sites) is measured to each site's main gate, the shorter distance used; and that flats sharing a communal entrance are measured to the block, with lower door numbers prioritised in a tie. Secondary schools set their own arrangements as their own admissions authorities: most measure a straight-line distance from the home address to the school's main entrance/gate (a few instead to a stated "admission nodal point" some distance from the school, e.g. a road junction) -- but The City of London Academy (Southwark) measures "the shortest safe walking distance" to its nodal point, not a straight line.

All applicants who were considered for a place at this school were offered one; the distance criterion was not needed.
