I would like to know the number of pupils/students were offered a place at Bourne Grammar School (Bourne, Lincs) for the last five years and their official residential address was outside the catchment area of the Bourne Grammar School.
1. What is the longest distance taken into account when a child was offered a school place at Bourne Grammar School as per the admission policy requirements for the last five years?
2. How many children/pupils were offered a place at Bourne Grammar School for the last five years when the child's home address post code was 16 or more miles?
