Milby Primary School
About Milby Primary School
Milby Primary School enjoys strong parent approval, with 85% of respondents to the most recent Parent View survey saying they would recommend the school. That figure comes from 54 responses collected between September 2024 and September 2025, and it sits alongside some notably high individual scores: 94% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 87% felt their child does well there. The school is also heavily oversubscribed. For the 2025/26 intake, Milby received 260 applications for 59 places, an oversubscription ratio of 4. 41 to one. Of the 84 families who put Milby as their first preference, 54 were offered a place. That level of demand suggests a school that local families are keen to get into, and the data backs up the sense that parents are broadly satisfied with what their children are getting.
