Simple Question please. What is the basis of the "distance" rule?

I'm not sure what you are asking, but there is some information here:

Or presumably on the Bucks County Council website.

Welcome!
Each school in Bucks has an Admissions Policy, prioritising children in different ways. Some give priority to siblings, some to catchment children, etc, etc.
Those "sub-groups" are then allocated places in descending order and according to the "straight line distance" from the child's home to the school gates.
A very simplistic explanation, but please ask if you need more specific information about a given school.
