The places offered, applications and first preferences for 2014-15 and 2015-16 (Reception) are DfE's figures for its predecessor, Shortlanesend Community Primary School, before it converted.
2014-15 and 2015-16 (Reception) were the admissions rounds of its predecessor, Shortlanesend Community Primary School (URN 111862): every figure for those years is that school's.
The last distance offered is an outcome of each admission round — how far from the school the final offer reached after places were allocated under the published criteria. It is not a catchment boundary and it moves every year with sibling numbers, birth-year cohort size and application patterns.
Figures come from the local authority's published allocation data. Some councils publish the National Offer Day figure, which can understate the final September position after waiting-list movement — always confirm with the admissions authority before relying on a single year.
