SourceLondon Borough of Barnet offer-day figures, 2023 to 2025.
How it is worked outThe bars show how far the last place offered reached each year. A full bar means everyone who applied was offered a place; a dash means we hold no distance for that year. Your postcode is set against each year's last distance.
- A record of past years, not a promise: the distance changes every year with who applies.
Offers reached between 0.48 and 0.54 miles in the last 3 years we hold. Enter your postcode to see where your home falls.
