“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.

Distances are published as "up to X miles (straight-line distance)" for the last offer under each criterion; the admissions brochures state distance is measured in a straight line from the home address point to the school's address point.

From the "How places were offered in 2025" panel of the council's primary admissions brochure: "Total number of on-time applications submitted: 43 All on-time applications were offered with no appeals lodged.. *The admission criteria have been summarised. You are advised to read the full policy and notes contained within the school's published arrangements in order that you are fully informed of the requirements in relation to the religious elements."
