Follow-up audit of the rankings and admissions pages. Admissions (AdmissionsView.tsx): - National Offer Day no longer claims offers publish "from 12:01 am"; release times are set per-council (often late afternoon, some overnight), so it now tells parents to check their council's page. - Secondary preference count no longer states a flat "up to six" (that's London/Pan-London); most LAs allow three to six. Mirrors the hedge the primary step already used. - Added the two deadlines that most often catch parents out: selective schools' separate entrance-test registration (months earlier), and faith schools' supplementary information form sent direct to the school. Covered in both the primary and secondary criteria steps. - Reworded the equal-preference tip so it's precise: order is the tie-break among schools you qualify for (you get the highest-ranked one), not irrelevant. Rankings (RankingsView.tsx): - Subtitle "Top-performing schools by X" -> "Schools ranked by X", so it isn't nonsensical for context/equity/absence metrics. - KS2 progress isn't published for 2023/24 or 2024/25 (no KS1 baseline). Selecting a primary progress metric on a recent year used to dead-end on a generic "No rankings found". Added a scoped caveat to the progress hint and an explanatory empty-state (primary only — secondary Progress 8 is published). Added an admissions smoke journey (static content, stable milestones). Verified with tsc --noEmit and next build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_0146VHeLAWjDVE2B5uU67jCB
