Clapton Girls' Academy admits by ability band: each band's places are offered separately, so each band has its own figures and no single last distance applies to the school. The council's table for each year shows how places went in each band.
Year 7 offers band by band
How many places each ability band was offered, and how far offers reached in each where the council published it, for Year 7 entry, 2022-23 to 2025-26, are part of Pro.
Verified from official sources across all four UK nations — when a figure isn't confirmed, we show nothing, never a guess.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.
At a school that admits by ability band, applicants are placed in bands and each band's places are offered separately, so the council publishes figures for each band rather than one last distance for the school.
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.
