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.
We hold no last distance for this school.

How it is worked outThe dashed circle is drawn from the school as far as the last child offered a place lived, in a straight line. A red dot is your home, with a line to the school. Tap the map to open the full Schools map.
- Councils measure distance their own way (some by walking route), so the circle is a guide, not a boundary.

How it is worked outRanked on 2025 KS2 results: the share reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. One year and one figure: each school's place among Kent's primaries with a published figure that year; the share reaching the higher standard breaks a tie. Schools on the same figures share a place. A school whose figure DfE hides (a small year group) or does not publish is not ranked, never put last. Source: DfE school performance tables.
- One rank everywhere on the site. A school with no published figure that year is not ranked, never put last.
