In 2026-27, the last Year 7 place at Carr Manor Community School went to an applicant living 0.94 miles from the school. The last place went under “In defined catchment area”, a priority group, so this distance applies only to that group, not to every family. We hold 11 published distances for this school, across Year 7 and Reception entry.
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 last distance offered has fallen over that period — offers now reach less far than they used to.
In 2026-27, Carr Manor Community School received 842 applications for 136 places offered — around 6.2 per place offered. 197 named it as a first preference, or about 1.4 first choices per place offered.

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.
