Secondary school allocations

This dataset shows secondary school place allocations based on distance (in miles). Dataset Guidance

Nearest: The furthest distance from which a pupil was admitted if it was their nearest school. Non nearest: The furthest distance from which a pupil was admitted if it was not their nearest school.

Information

Distances are measured using the midpoint of the main school building and the Royal Mail Postcode Address File (PAF) which creates a set of o/s coordinates for each property in Leeds and the surrounding area. These coordinates are unique to each individual property and are used to then measure the distance, in a straight line, from a property to the central point on the main school building.
