Adds the cut-off distance a parent actually asks about — "how close do we
need to live?" — end to end: a Singer tap, dbt staging and mart models, an
Airflow DAG, and a tile on both detail templates. 3,597 schools across 57
local authorities carry a figure; the rest are unchanged.
There is no national source for this. Each LA publishes its own cut-offs in
its own format, and the collected CSV is transcribed from PDFs, spreadsheets
and web pages — so most of the work here is deciding what is safe to show.
Data
* tap-uk-school-distance loads the CSV verbatim into raw. Keyed on
(urn, year, school_name), because school_name carries the admission
route: (urn, year) alone collides on 118 keys and a reload would have
silently dropped every band but one.
* stg_school_distance applies a 25 m – 25 km plausibility band. The source
contains 0.0-mile rows (published where a school filled on a higher
criterion), 1-metre cut-offs, and one reading 533 miles — ~4% of rows,
all of which would put a visibly wrong number on a live page.
* fact_admission_distance collapses routes to one row per school per year
using the furthest, and keeps route_count so the page can say the figure
is the widest of several bands rather than the one for a given child.
Serving
* Kept out of fact_admissions: that mart is EES-derived and near-complete
for England, this one covers 57 LAs, and the two refresh independently.
* Latest year only. Coverage is ragged — a school may have 2021 and 2026
and nothing between — so a history array would invite a trend line drawn
through gaps that are absences of publication, not of a cut-off.
* The Admissions section now renders on either source. 3% of the schools
that render have a cut-off and no EES admissions row, and gating on
admissions alone would have hidden the figure on those pages.
Interface
* The year travels with the figure everywhere it appears; a cut-off
detached from its admissions round is not a fact about anything.
* "Not a fixed catchment — it moves every year" sits under every instance,
because that is the inference a parent will otherwise draw.
* Replaces a hardcoded "Historical distance cut-off data is not available
for this school" that appeared on every secondary page, including the
ones whose council does publish it. The absence is now stated only when
it is real, and names the authority that would hold it.
The tint costs the muted tokens their AA margin: measured on the composited
backdrop (not the computed one, which reports the untinted card), --text-muted
falls to 4.09:1 in dark theme. The tile uses --text-secondary instead — 6.50:1
dark, 6.60:1 light.
The DAG is manual, like the other annual ones: councils publish on allocation
day, each on its own timetable, so there is no date worth scheduling against.

Add seven school-identity fields to the detail header (both primary and
secondary views): age range, religious character, nursery and sixth-form
indicators as chips; telephone (tel: link), county and parliamentary
constituency as header details. religious_denomination, age_range and
has_sixth_form were already served; telephone, nursery_provision, county
and parliamentary_constituency are newly wired through the marts query
(with a NULL fallback for un-rebuilt marts, mirroring has_sixth_form) and
the school_info API response.
Remove three UI sections the backend never populated (always null): Year 1
Phonics, the SEN "types of additional needs" breakdown, and the average
class-size card — along with their now-dead props, route plumbing, and the
SenDetail/Phonics types + class_size_avg field.
Extend the e2e detail journey to assert the Phonics section is gone and the
new header fields render when the record carries them.

The KS2 SATs chart drew a single national-average line spanning the
full height of each subject's chart area, positioned at the national
*expected* value. But the area stacks two bars — Expected and Exceeding
— and the higher-standard/greater-depth national is a very different,
much lower figure (e.g. reading higher standard ~29% vs expected ~75%).
So the line crossed the Exceeding bar at the wrong place, making every
school's exceeding result look far below national when it wasn't.
The per-subject higher-standard nationals were already computed in the
fact_ks2_national_averages mart; they just weren't serialized. Fix:
- backend: add reading_high_pct, writing_gd_pct (writing = greater
depth) and maths_high_pct to the national-averages payload.
- SchoolDetailView: pass a nationalExceedingPct per subject, mapping
writing to the greater-depth figure.
- SatsChart: replace the single full-height line with a national marker
on each bar's own track (coral tick + "nat X%" in the bar header), so
Expected and Exceeding each sit against the correct benchmark.
KS2 only; the secondary Attainment 8 chart already uses one line for
one measure and is untouched.
Verified: tsc --noEmit, next build, and backend pytest (national
averages marts, incl. a new test guarding the per-subject nationals).

M1: admissions rounds are now selected by the active phase tab
(admissionsForPhase) — an all-through school's Year 7 round no longer
masquerades as Reception odds beside pure primaries; honest per-cell and
section fallbacks name the round (Reception / Year 7).
M2: Ofsted sentinel codes (9 = not applicable) never render as judgement
chips, and the sixth-form judgement — previously dropped — now renders
for schools that have one.
M3: 'What this means' is phase- and type-aware: selective schools get
entrance-test framing, secondary faith schools a faith-criteria note, and
the primaries' distance template never appears on the secondary tab
(admissions_policy now exposed in compare school_info).

New ees_ks4_national stream ingests the EES 'National characteristics
summary data' series (England, state-funded, all pupils). The old mart's
unweighted school means were 7-15 points off every headline measure and
produced an impossible national Progress 8 (-0.27). The API's computed
fallback is gone too: the footnote calls these figures official, so an
unbuilt mart now yields an empty series, never a stand-in.

get_supplementary_data ran ~5 sequential DB round-trips per URN, so
/api/compare scaled at ~37ms/school (measured on staging: 1 school 155ms,
3 schools 220ms, 6 schools 340ms). get_supplementary_data_batch fetches
each table once with WHERE urn IN (...) and groups in Python, collapsing
5*N round-trips to a constant 5. get_supplementary_data is now a thin
wrapper so the detail endpoint is unchanged; the compare endpoint makes
one batched call. Each table degrades independently on failure.

- data_loader.load_school_data_as_dataframe now catches a ProgrammingError
whose message mentions has_sixth_form (psycopg2 UndefinedColumn) and
retries with a NULL-AS-has_sixth_form query variant, so the API keeps

even before the nightly pipeline has rebuilt marts.dim_school.
- utils.convert_to_native now handles numpy.bool_ so GET /api/schools/{urn}

Schools without KS2/KS4 results (special post-16 institutions, sixth-form
centres, PRUs, new schools) come back from the marts LEFT JOIN with NaN in
every numeric column. school_info passed those raw pandas values straight
into JSONResponse, which renders with allow_nan=False, so the detail
endpoint 500d and the frontend turned that into a 404 on every such SEO
landing page.
Run school_info values through convert_to_native (the same treatment
yearly_data already gets), add backend unit tests plus a pytest step in PR
checks, and an e2e journey that finds a results-less school via the search
API and asserts its page renders.

Removes the 'What Parents Say' section and all supporting elements:
Frontend:
- Drop the OfstedParentView type, the parent_view field, the survey
section and the 'X% would recommend' callouts in the primary and
secondary detail views, the Parents nav item, and the parent-view CSS.
Backend:
- Remove the FactParentView model, its loading in data_loader, and
parent_view from the school-details API response.
- Bump SCHEMA_VERSION to 6 and add an idempotent drop step
(DROP TABLE IF EXISTS marts.fact_parent_view) to the CLI migration;
add scripts/sql/drop_fact_parent_view.sql to apply directly to the
dbt-owned marts DBs on staging and prod.
Pipeline:

staging bootstrap docs.
The rest of dbt (which builds every mart the app reads) is untouched.

The rankings endpoint validated year with le=2100, but the database

The school detail page only showed the latest admissions year. We store
every year, which is more decision-relevant for parents (the trend and its
consistency matter more than a single noisy year).
Backend now returns the full admissions_history (oldest first) alongside the
existing latest-year object. The primary SchoolDetailView gains a header
toggle ("This year | N-year trend") that swaps the Q&A for an SVG sparkline
of the first-choice offer rate. The toggle only appears when >=2 years carry
an offer rate; otherwise it falls back to the single-year card. Both views
share one CSS-grid cell so switching causes no layout shift.

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.

The /api/rankings endpoint returned each row keyed by the metric's
column name (e.g. rwm_high_pct) but never under a generic `value`
field. The frontend RankingItem type and RankingsView both read
ranking.value, so every row rendered "—" for every metric — the
default rwm_expected_pct included.
Add `df["value"] = df[metric]` before JSON serialisation so the
frontend gets the value it has always expected. The raw metric
column is still in the row for any caller that wants it explicitly.

P1 (backend/data_loader.py): Add load_latest_school_data() which pre-computes
the one-row-per-school latest-year snapshot (groupby, prev-year trend merge)
once at startup instead of on every /api/schools request. get_schools route
now starts from the cached snapshot rather than rebuilding it.
S3 (backend/app.py): Wrap synchronous geocode_single_postcode() call in
asyncio.to_thread() so postcode lookups no longer block the uvicorn event
loop. Admin reload endpoint also uses to_thread for both cache primes.
P2 (nextjs-app/components/HomeView.tsx): Add mapParamsRef guard so switching
back to map view does not re-fetch 500 schools when search params haven't
changed. Reset ref on new searches so fresh data is always fetched.
P3 (nextjs-app/lib/chartSetup.ts): Extract Chart.js registration into a
shared side-effect module. ComparisonChart and PerformanceChart now import
it instead of each calling ChartJS.register() independently.
P4 (backend/database.py): Remove unnecessary db.commit() from the read-only
get_db_session() context manager — saves a DB round-trip on every request.
P5 (backend/database.py): Add pool_recycle=1800 to SQLAlchemy engine to
prevent stale TCP connections from accumulating in long-running processes.

- Historical data: collapse raw year-by-year table behind a disclosure
element while keeping the performance line chart always visible
- EAL metric: add national average comparison via DeltaChip (backend now
includes eal_pct in national averages endpoint)
- New formatWithSuppression utility for null/suppressed data handling

Replaces computed means from our school dataset with the published DfE
national headline figures for the KS2 chart reference line.
- tap-uk-ees: new EESKs2NationalStream fetches the stable EES data-catalogue
CSV (one row per year, England national total, AllSchools filter)
- dbt staging: stg_ees_ks2_national normalises columns, casts to float,
filters to years >= 201617
- dbt mart: fact_ks2_national_averages — one row per year, official figures
- backend/models: Ks2NationalAverage SQLAlchemy model
- backend/app: /api/national-averages queries the mart for KS2 by_year;
secondary by_year stays computed (no DfE KS4 national dataset yet)
- DAG: extract_ks2_national task added to school_data_annual_ees,
runs in parallel with the main EES extract

Previously the dashed reference line was a flat horizontal at the latest
year's national average across all historical data, implying the national
figure was constant. Now the backend returns per-year averages in `by_year`
and the chart maps each data year to its own national average, so the
reference line correctly reflects how the national picture changed over time
(including COVID recovery dip/recovery).
- backend: /api/national-averages now includes `by_year` list alongside
existing `year`/`primary`/`secondary` latest-year snapshot
- types: NationalAverages extended with `by_year: NationalAveragesYear[]`
- PerformanceChart: accepts `nationalByYear` prop; builds per-year series
aligned to school data years, falling back to scalar prop if absent
- SchoolDetailView + SecondarySchoolDetailView: pass `nationalAvg.by_year`

Root cause: the UNION ALL query in data_loader.py produced two rows per
all-through school per year (one KS2, one KS4), with drop_duplicates()
silently discarding the KS4 row. Fixes:
- New dbt mart `fact_performance`: FULL OUTER JOIN of fact_ks2_performance
and fact_ks4_performance on (urn, year). One row per school per year.
All-through schools have both KS2 and KS4 columns populated.
- data_loader.py: replace 175-line UNION ALL with a simple JOIN to
fact_performance. No more duplicate rows or drop_duplicates needed.
- sync_typesense.py: single LATERAL JOIN to fact_performance instead of
two separate KS2/KS4 joins.
- app.py: remove drop_duplicates (no longer needed); add PHASE_GROUPS
constant so all-through/middle schools appear in primary and secondary
filter results (were previously invisible to both); scope result_filters
gender/admissions_policies to secondary schools only.
- HomeView.tsx: isSecondaryView is now majority-based (not "any secondary")
and isMixedView shows both sort option sets for mixed result sets.
- school/[slug]/page.tsx: all-through schools route to SchoolDetailView
(renders both SATs + GCSE sections) instead of SecondarySchoolDetailView
(KS4-only). Dedicated SEO metadata for all-through schools.

- Remove 10-mile radius option; cap backend radius max at 5 miles
- Raise backend page_size max to 500 so map can fetch all schools in one call
- HomeView: when map view is active, fetch all schools within radius
(page_size=500) instead of showing only the paginated first page;
falls back to initial SSR schools while loading
- SchoolMap/LeafletMapInner: accept referencePoint prop and render a
distinctive coral circle pin at the search postcode location

Load-more requests read URL params (postcode, radius, etc.) but page_size
is never in the URL — it's hardcoded in page.tsx. Without it the backend
received page_size=None, hit a TypeError on (page-1)*None, returned 500,
and the silent catch left the user stuck on page 1.
In a dense area (e.g. Wimbledon SW19) 50 schools fit within ~1.8 miles,
so page 1 never shows anything beyond that regardless of selected radius.
Fix:
- Backend: give page_size a safe default of 25 instead of None
- Frontend: explicitly pass initialSchools.page_size in load-more params
