Schools near SE12 and their latest cut-offs
For each school, we measured a straight line from the centre point of each of the 388 SE12 postcodes in Lewisham to the point the council measures to, as Lewisham Council does, and compared it with the school’s latest last distance offered. A postcode within 75 m of the cut-off, either side, counts as borderline: where a home sits in its postcode could put it on either side.
