In 2025 the last distances offered ranged from 0.32 to 1.08 miles across the published bands or admission groups.
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".
Distances are published separately for each band / route of admission, shown as groups.
