Application and Allocation Statistics for Secondary School Places

1. The Application and Allocation statistics for secondary school places as at allocation day 3 March 2025

What I am essentially after is the information data the Local Education Authority holds on school allocations for the following school. 



Lincoln Christ's Hospital School.

a) The number of applicants for the school including, if available, whether they formed first, second or third choices

b) The number of spaces allocated to children in each category, E.G  Looked after children, Siblings, parent working at the school, distance etc



2. What is the longest measured distance when a child was offered a school place at the above based on straight-line distance from home to the school address, as per the over subscription criteria for year 7, i.e. maximum distance

measured for purely this criteria, (not considering the other criteria which precede this (e.g. has a sibling etc) where someone could live further away but qualify due to that.
