How these figures are calculated. Sales are completed transactions from HM Land Registry Price Paid data (2015 to Jun 2026) for homes whose postcode centre lies within 0.5 miles of the school. The radius widens from half a mile, up to 3 miles in rural areas, until there are enough sales to be meaningful. We show the median so a few unusual sales do not distort the picture.
