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.
Barnet prints the "furthest distance offered (miles)" for each distance-based criterion; the primary tables describe it as the "furthest straight-line distance in miles".
Community school with a defined (catchment) area: after looked-after children, EHCPs, exceptional need and siblings, children living in the defined area are offered places before children living outside it, each by straight-line distance. Not every child living in the defined area was offered a place: offers reached 0.404 miles within the area, and none outside it.
