In 2014-15, the last place at St Edward's Church of England Academy went to an applicant living 8.67 miles from the school. The council's figures don't show whether anyone was refused that year, so it may not have been a cut-off. St Edward's Church of England Academy ranks faith before distance, so this distance describes children who meet its faith priorities; a family with no faith priority comes after them. We hold 1 year of published distances for this school.
In 2026-27, St Edward's Church of England Academy received 334 applications for 210 places — around 1.6 per place. 113 named it as a first preference, or about 0.5 first choices per place.

The applications and first preferences for 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 (Year 7) are DfE's figures for its predecessor, St Edward's Church of England School & Sixth Form College.
2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 (Year 7) were the admissions rounds of its predecessor, St Edward's Church of England School & Sixth Form College (URN 137145): 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.
