"1st prefs per place" means how many families put the school first, for each place it gave out. It is the newest year we hold for each school. It shows how many people want the school. It does not tell you if a child would get a place. "Catchment" says whether anyone publishes an area map for that school. Where nobody does, we hold no map, so we cannot say if an address is inside one.
