The dataset provides an overview of school admissions in Barnet from 2019 to 2025, covering both primary and secondary schools. It includes detailed counts of applications and offers made by each school, broken down by preference rank (from 1st to 6th) and academic year. This structure allows for analysis of trends in school popularity, parental preferences, and how schools allocate places relative to demand.
Applications data shows how often each school is selected at different preference levels, while the offers data reflects how many places were actually allocated, excluding EHCP placements and non-preference allocations. Together, these insights support strategic planning, help identify oversubscribed schools, and enable comparisons between application pressure and offer availability across the borough.
