How these figures are calculated. Sales are completed transactions from HM Land Registry Price Paid data (2015 to Apr 2026) for homes whose postcode centre lies within 1 mile 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.
