About Milford School

Milford School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For entry in the 2025/26 academic year, the school received 97 applications for just 33 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 2. 94. Of those, 27 families put it as their first preference, and all 27 were offered a place. While the school doesn’t publish a formal parent recommendation percentage, this level of demand — nearly three applicants for every spot — is a strong signal that families who know the school rate it highly. The school is a state primary for children aged 4 to 7, so it’s an infant school only, and it’s mixed gender with no religious character. Headteacher Sara Cox leads a relatively small school of 147 pupils against a capacity of 180, meaning there’s some room to grow but not much slack given the current popularity.
