- URLs now /school/138267-school-name instead of /school/138267
- Bare URN URLs redirect to canonical slug (backward compat)
- Remove overflow-x:hidden that broke sticky tab nav on secondary pages
- ComparisonToast starts collapsed — user must click to open

1. Simpler home page: only search box on landing, no filter dropdowns
2. Advanced filters: hidden behind toggle on results page, auto-open if active
3. Per-school phase rendering: each row renders based on its own data
4. Taller 4-line rows with context line (type, age range, denomination, gender)
5. Result-scoped filters: dropdown values reflect current search results
6. Fix blank filter values: exclude empty strings and "Not applicable"
7. Rankings: Primary/Secondary phase tabs with phase-specific metrics
8. Compare: Primary/Secondary tabs with school counts and phase metrics

Addresses 28 issues identified in UX audit (P0–P3 severity):
P0 — Critical:
- Fix compare URL sharing: seed ComparisonContext from SSR initialData
when localStorage is empty, making /compare?urns=... links shareable
- Remove permanently broken "Avg. Scaled Score" column from school
detail historical data table
P1 — High priority:
- Add radius selector (0.5–10 mi) to postcode search in FilterBar
- Make Add to Compare a toggle (remove) on SchoolCards
- Hide hero title/description once a search is active
- Show school count + quick-search prompts on empty landing page
- Compare empty state opens in-page school search modal directly
- Remove URN from school detail header (irrelevant to end users)
- Move map above performance chart in school detail page
- Add ← Back navigation to school detail page
- Add sort controls to search results (RWM%, distance, A–Z)
- Show metric descriptions below metric selector
- Expand ComparisonToast to list school names with per-school remove
- Add progress score explainer (0 = national average) throughout
P2 — Medium:
- Remove console.log statements from ComparisonView
- Colour-code comparison school cards to match chart line colours
- Replace plain loading text with LoadingSkeleton in ComparisonView
- Rankings empty state uses shared EmptyState component
- Rankings year filter shows actual year e.g. "2023 (Latest)"
- Rankings subtitle shows top-N count
- Add View link alongside Add button in rankings table
- Remove placeholder Privacy Policy / Terms links from footer
- Replace untappable 10px info icons with visible metric hint text

Changed 'equity' to 'disadvantaged' and 'trends' to '3yr' to match
the MetricDefinition category type.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Added optgroup elements to organize metrics into logical categories:
- Expected Standard
- Higher Standard
- Progress Scores
- Average Scores
- Gender Performance
- Equity (Disadvantaged)
- School Context
- 3-Year Trends
Also added CSS styling for optgroup labels to match the design system.
Note: School names in rankings are already clickable links to school details.

- ComparisonView now uses fetchComparison from lib/api
- SchoolSearchModal now uses fetchSchools from lib/api
- Fixed bug in fetcher function that incorrectly sliced URLs
(url.slice(4) was removing '/com' from '/compare')
This fixes the malformed URL issue where '/api/compare' became '/apipare'.

Added better UX and debugging for the comparison screen:
1. Loading state for chart section
- Shows "Loading comparison data..." when schools are selected
but data hasn't loaded yet
- Provides visual feedback to users
2. Enhanced debugging logs
- Log URNs being fetched
- Log API response status
- Log received comparison data
- Better error handling with null state on failure
3. Improved conditional rendering
- Chart shows when data is available
- Loading message shows when waiting for data
- Nothing shows when no schools selected
This helps diagnose any API issues and provides better user feedback
during data loading.

The compare screen and school search modal were not working because
they were fetching from '/api' directly instead of using the
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL environment variable that points to the backend.
Fixed client-side fetch calls in:
- ComparisonView: Fetch comparison data with correct API URL
- SchoolSearchModal: Search schools with correct API URL
This ensures client-side requests go to the FastAPI backend at
the configured URL (e.g., http://localhost:8000/api) rather than
trying to hit non-existent Next.js API routes.
Fixes comparison screen showing no data when schools are selected.
