fact_performance's total_pupils is the cohort a year's results were measured on. For a secondary that is Year 11 alone, and the list API sent it as the card's "pupils": Burntwood showed 245 in search and 1,462 on its page. The list and place payloads now carry the register's whole-school count, and nothing when the register has none. Map popups and the compare basket read the same field. The header and the wellbeing section fell back to the same results figure when the census had no record. They now fall back to the register count. The shell took yearlyData only for that fallback, so the prop is gone and the results array no longer ships to the client for the chrome. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SchoolCompare frontend and CMS
Next.js App Router with React, TypeScript, CSS Modules, Chart.js, Leaflet and Payload CMS. It serves school search, comparisons, rankings, school/place detail pages and editorial content across England.
Start with the repository overview, architecture and development checks.

Do not introduce a shared app/layout.tsx: public pages and Payload have separate
root layouts. Keep root metadata files outside the route groups.
Data and state
Server pages fetch initial data directly from FASTAPI_URL. Browser fetches use
/api by default, forwarded by app/(frontend)/api/[...path]/route.ts.
FASTAPI_URL must include /api. See .env.example for CMS and API settings.
State uses React hooks/context, URL search parameters and localStorage for the comparison basket. SWR is not installed. Maps use dynamic Leaflet wrappers. Revalidation intervals are configured in fetch wrappers and pages; they vary by resource. Backend reloads do not automatically invalidate every Next.js cache.
Commands
npm ci
npm run typecheck
npm test -- --runInBand
npm run build
test:watch and test:coverage are also available. There is no lint script.
A running application needs the backend/data environment described in the
development guide.
After CMS field or editor changes, run npm run generate:importmap. Keep
payload-types.ts generated from the CMS schema rather than editing it by hand.
The build must work without a database connection; avoid module-scope CMS queries
and DB-backed generateStaticParams functions.
See publishing for CMS operations and deployment for staging and production promotion.
