How do you get a place?

1.708 miwas the furthest home offered a Year 7 place for 2025 under the distance rule

Last distance offered — how far from school the furthest place went under the distance criterion; siblings, faith, feeder-school and banding criteria come first, so it is a guide, not a boundary. “All offered” means nobody was turned away.
