Tiffin & Sutton Schools - Furthest distance offered

Do the schools publish the furthest distance admitted in their PAN?

I understand that Tiffin operates a 14km radius but I'm keen to know whether all pupils admitted are living he catchment.

Thanks.

Tiffin has never had to go outside its designated area, not surprisingly as the area is so huge. Within the designated area it offers on score. See Stroller's links and previous posts.

Sutton has 60 open places, though scores are banded in 4 marks blocks and then distance criteria is applied to all boys scoring within the same block. If fewer than 60 boys score the top scores, then they would get in regardless of where they live.

Tiffin are determined to not go beyond their designated area, and are able to set the pass rate accordingly.
