Frontend
- Dynamic-import Chart.js components on detail/compare views so Chart.js
no longer ships in initial JS.
- Drop force-dynamic on home, compare, rankings so internal data fetches
reuse Next.js's per-call revalidate cache.
- Switch /school/[slug] to ISR with a 7-day revalidate window (school
data updates annually).
- Preconnect to analytics + postcodes.io; remove redundant defer on the
Umami Script tag (afterInteractive already covers it).
- Bump images.minimumCacheTTL to 1 year.
- Extract HowItWorks and Editorial sections as server components passed
to HomeView via slot props so their JSX stays out of the client bundle.
Backend
- Add GZipMiddleware (min 512 bytes).
- Add CacheAndETagMiddleware: per-path Cache-Control with long s-maxage
+ stale-while-revalidate, ETag generation, and 304 on If-None-Match.

Adds data-performance="true" to the Umami script tag. From v3.1.0+,
this hooks PerformanceObserver and posts LCP, INP, CLS, FCP and TTFB
to the collect endpoint with Google's rating buckets pre-applied.
The Umami dashboard then surfaces them in its built-in Performance
tab with p50/p75/p95 percentiles and per-page / per-device breakdowns
— no custom event taxonomy needed.
Requires the analytics instance to be on Umami ≥ v3.1.0. The
attribute is a no-op on older versions, so no risk to ship before
upgrading the dashboard.

MOB-19: Add a viewport Viewport export with viewportFit: 'cover' and
themeColor entries for light (#faf7f2) / dark (#1a1612), plus the
appleWebApp metadata for the home-screen status bar style and title.
Manifest's stale #3b82f6 theme_color updated to match brand cream.
MOB-20: Apply env(safe-area-inset-*) to the sticky chrome — the top
header gets max(padding, inset-left/right) so the logo and tab links
clear the notch in landscape; the bottom tab bar already had
inset-bottom and now also gets inset-left/right.
MOB-21: Replace 100vh with 100dvh in body min-height, modal max-heights,
the map view container, and the fullscreen map. Older engines fall
back via the duplicated vh declaration.
MOB-22: Set -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent on body to
suppress the iOS Safari grey flash; add a generic touch-pointer
:active rule (opacity 0.7) so taps still register visually on plain
anchors and bare buttons. Components with their own :active styling
are unaffected.

METRIC_EXPLANATIONS — added to RWM, GPS, SEN, EAL, IDACI, progress

Progress 8, EBacc) and previously missing terms (SEN, EHCP, EAL, IDACI)

shows Attainment 8 / English & Maths Grade 4+ for secondary schools
- Frontend: FilterBar adds Phase dropdown (Primary / Secondary / All-through)
- Frontend: HomeView hero copy updated; compact list shows phase-aware metric
