In 2025 the last distances offered ranged from 0.29 to 2.56 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.
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.
Foundation Band 1: "17 offers (including 3 siblings), last offer up to 2.558 miles straight-line distance" Foundation Band 2: "33 offers (including 8 siblings), last offer up to 2.071 miles straight-line distance" Foundation Band 3: "17 offers (including 2 siblings), last offer up to 2.519 miles straight-line distance" Open Band 1: "13 offers, last offer up to 0.295 miles straight-line distance" Open Band 2: "27 offers (including, 1 EHCP, 3 CLA and 5 siblings), last offer up to 0.487 miles straight-line distance" Open Band 3: "13 offers (including 3 EHCP, 1 CLA and 5 siblings), last offer up to 0.338 miles straight-line distance" The school publishes a separate last distance for each criterion/band, shown as groups.
