About Kents Hill Park all-through school

Kents Hill Park all-through school in Milton Keynes is a mixed, non-faith state school for pupils aged 3 to 16, and it is clearly a popular choice. With 1,019 pupils on roll against a capacity of 1,080, the school is running very close to full. The demand is striking: for the 2025/26 secondary intake, the school received 586 applications for just 119 places, an oversubscription ratio of nearly five to one. Of those, 97 families put it as their first preference, and 82 first-preference offers were made. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 29.2%, which is well above the national average and suggests the school serves a relatively disadvantaged catchment. Headteacher James Pilgrim leads a school that, despite this pressure on places, has held a Good rating from Ofsted since its most recent graded inspection in October 2022.
