We do not compare these years: we do not hold the criterion the last place went under for every one of them, or it differs between them, so the distances may not be like for like.

The places offered, applications and first preferences for 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 (Year 7) are DfE's figures for its predecessor, Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School, before it converted.
2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20 (Year 7) were the admissions rounds of its predecessor, Bishop Ullathorne Catholic School (URN 103742): every figure for those years is that school's.
How to read this: 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.
