“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.

Published per-school in the "Tie-break Procedure" column: most schools use "Shortest Walking Distance in Miles", a few use "Straight Line Distance in Miles", and Harris Science Academy East London is published in "Straight Line Distance in Kilometres" (converted to miles here).

Detailed admission-criteria counts (EHCP, sibling, etc.) are published for this school and year but are not parsed here; PAN and total applications are published in a separate table in the same document and are also not parsed here. Only the distance and criterion of the final offer, and the tie-break method, are recorded. Tie-break method for this school: "Straight Line Distance in Kilometres". Published in kilometres (N/A km); converted to miles here. No offers were made under the distance criterion (places filled by higher criteria, or the school had spare capacity).
