About Stanton School
Stanton School is a state primary for pupils aged 7 to 11 in Milton Keynes, one of 89 primary schools in the local authority. It sits 34th in the LA rankings, placing it just outside the top third of its peers. The top three primaries in the area are Caroline Haslett Primary School, Middleton Primary School, and Haversham Village School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. Stanton itself is rated Outstanding by Ofsted, a grade it has held since its last graded inspection in 2016. An ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed the school remains Outstanding, with leadership and management also judged Outstanding. It is one of only 13 primaries in Milton Keynes to hold this top rating. The nearest other Outstanding school is Two Mile Ash School, about 3.1 km away. With a capacity of 360 and 312 pupils currently on roll, Stanton is not oversubscribed, which may reflect its position in the local pecking order.
