PAN

What is PAN?
Can it change in number?
How do individual heads of the GS decide how many offers are made over PAN each year?
Is the real idea of offers over PAN because schools want the cleverer children (i.e. those definitely reaching the pass mark) as opposed to the borderline cases (those on the waiting lists)?
Is the 'ideal' scenario: a zero offer over PAN - so those on the waiting list can get a GS place or is it better to have a larger offer over PAN?
Can you have more take up offers over than PAN?
Is the pass mark set after working out offers over PAN or is it the other way round?
What are the recent offer numbers over PAN for the KEGS?
Can there really be as much as a 25% rejection of a KEGS (offers over PAN) in favour of an Indie etc?
I'm just trying to get my head around this subject (after finally getting to grips with standardisation scores)!
Any of these answered would be appreciated.
