How it is worked outDevon and England: DfE's own averages for results. For the rest, the middle state primary school of the same phase, from every school we hold, since DfE publishes no council figure we hold.

SourceDevon County Council offer-day figures, 2025 to 2026.
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 2.28 and 2.4 miles in the last 2 years we hold. Enter your postcode to see where your home falls.
Bars: how far the last place offered reached each year. Check your postcode and each year turns green where a place reached your home.
