TudorandClaude Opus 5.5	d1688ac150	copy(web): replace em dashes in public copy ... Rewrites every visitor-facing string that used an em dash, choosing the punctuation for what the dash was doing: a colon before a list or explanation, a comma for an aside, a full stop between two thoughts, parentheses for an aside mid-sentence. Covers page titles and meta descriptions, the home and admissions guide copy, school page headings and notes, the compare page, metric labels and tooltips. Two rewrites also fix the sentence around them: the closure banner no longer repeats "proposed for closure", and the cut-off caveat's list of priorities now parses. A lone dash marking a missing value in a table cell stays: it is a data convention, not prose. A Jest guard walks the source with the TypeScript parser and fails on any other em dash in a string or JSX text node.

TudorandClaude Opus 5	c9a1892bfb	feat(admissions): publish the latest cut-off only, holding history back ... Earlier years are to become a paid feature, so they stop being published. The load-bearing part is that this is a change to the API, not only to the page. /api/schools/{urn} is public and unauthenticated: leaving admission_distance_history in the payload while declining to render it would have handed the whole record to anyone who opened the network tab. It is withheld at the source, and the page follows. Nothing changes upstream. The tap, the plausibility band and fact_admission_distance are untouched and still load every published year, so restoring history for entitled callers is a change to one function in data_loader rather than a re-collection. What the reader now gets is the latest figure on the Admissions tile, and a Distance section that answers the question the number alone cannot: whether their own address falls inside it. Retitled to "How far away are you?", which is what it now does — the previous title described a record that is no longer there. Removed with the history: the trend chart, the year-by-year table, the per-year verdict strip, the trend summary and the coverage note, along with their CSS. The section goes from 743px to 417px. One consequence worth naming. A run of years used to soften a single close call — a home just outside one year's cut-off was usually inside another. With one year published, the "too close to call" band is the entire safety margin between a parent and a place they do not have, so the verdict now names its year, and the three outcomes are tinted apart rather than distinguished by wording alone. The existing stylesheet test earned its keep here: the three verdict classes were referenced before they were written, and it caught them. Unstyled, a "beyond the cut-off" result would have been indistinguishable from an "inside" one — the exact failure the longhand class map was written to prevent.

TudorandClaude Opus 5	94151c58ea	fix(admissions): move the cut-off detail into its own section ... The admissions card measured 1503px on a live school page — half the height of every section put together, and nearly three times the next largest — with its default view rendering as four tiles adrift in about 1080px of blank card. The cause was a layout trick meeting content it was never sized for. The admissions views are stacked in one grid cell so switching them never shifts layout, and the hidden ones keep their box: only visibility is dropped. That works while the views are comparable. The distance view added in #102 carries a chart, a table and a map, came to 1402px against the tile grid's 316px, and pinned every other view to its height — including the one that renders by default, which nobody had clicked. Rather than only unpinning it, the detail moves out. Every other topic on the page is a section with a nav entry, and "how close did we need to live, and would we have got in?" is a topic, not a variant reading of the intake figures. The headline number stays on the Admissions tile where the intake story is; the record behind it now lives in a Distance section directly below. admissions 1503px -> 554px distance new -> 743px (median section on the page is ~528px) Three further changes, each of which also makes the content better rather than only shorter: * The map renders on request. Before a postcode is entered it is a circle drawn round a school, and it costs a Leaflet bundle and 240px to say so; a successful check opens it automatically, which is the point at which it starts answering something. Map height 320px -> 240px. * The chart appears only at the four published years that let the summary state a direction. Below that we already refuse to call the series a trend, and a line through three points asserts one regardless of what the sentence beneath it admits. The table carries those years anyway, with the reasons a line cannot show. * Three caveat paragraphs become one. They said walking-route twice and made the same point about priorities in two voices. It now sits in CutoffDistanceDetail rather than inside the check, so it still renders for a school with coordinates missing, where there is a table but no map and no check. The new e2e guard asserts no section exceeds 2.5x the median section height. Measuring the card's internals cannot catch this: the tile grid is flex: 1, so it absorbs the stretch and every box still looks full. The first version of this test targeted an arbitrary primary, passed against the live bug, and proved nothing; pointed at a school that actually holds cut-off history it fails on staging with "#admissions is 1459px against a 526px median".

TudorandClaude Opus 5	a72323874f	feat(admissions): add the cut-off history, map and postcode check ... Completes the last-distance-offered feature against the mockup: the year-by-year record, the same numbers drawn over real streets, and the reader's own address measured against them. Serving the history The first cut deliberately served only the latest year, because a plain series would draw a trend line straight through gaps that are absences of publication, not of a cut-off. That reasoning is answered rather than abandoned: cutoffYearRows classifies every year in the span, and the chart breaks the line rather than interpolating across it. A missing year is not one fact but three. It may be unpublished; it may be a year the school was not oversubscribed; or there may be no record at all. Collapsing them into "no data" throws away the reassuring case and hides the important caveat, so each is stated in words in the table. The claim is held to what the data supports. fact_admissions.oversubscribed compares FIRST PREFERENCES against places, which does not establish that every applicant was offered one — so the copy says "places available on first preferences" and a test asserts the stronger claim never appears. The trend summary is not a verdict It names both endpoints and their years and lets the reader conclude. It is withheld below four published points, and a swing under a tenth of the earlier figure is reported as "broadly the same" rather than dressed up as a direction. The postcode check This is the only place on the site that answers a question about a family rather than a school, so most of the care went into what it refuses to say. postcodes.io returns a centroid covering roughly fifteen addresses, which against a 500 m cut-off is a fifth of the whole distance — so a margin inside 100 m returns "too close to call" rather than a place a family does not have. Unpublished years count as unknown, never as a pass. The limits are stated before the check is used, not revealed with the answer. The postcode is geocoded in the browser and never stored. Both templates Banded and selective secondaries are exactly where this matters most, so the detail is shared. The primary page gives it a third tab; the secondary page is one flat panel by design and renders it inline. Absence is explained rather than reported. A selective school's missing figure is explained by how it admits; a consistently undersubscribed school reads as good news. Also makes the batch loader's test double honour ORDER BY. It was a no-op, so "latest row per URN" was really "first row in the fixture" and the test would have passed with the sort reversed or removed. Verified: 214 frontend tests, 54 backend, 45/53 e2e green against staging (the 8 cut-off journeys skip until the DAG runs). Rendered offline against the real compiled CSS in both themes and at 390px; every new surface clears WCAG AA, measured on composited pixels.
