Wood End Infant & Pre-School
About Wood End Infant & Pre-School
Wood End Infant & Pre-School is a small state primary in Milton Keynes, currently home to 69 pupils against a capacity of 90, so there is room to grow. The school serves a notably diverse intake: 39.1% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average and a clear signal of the local community it supports. Demand is strong — for the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 38 applications for 20 places, with all 20 first-preference families offered a spot. That oversubscription ratio of 1.9 tells you this is a school local families actively want, even if it isn't the nearest Outstanding-rated option (Stanton School is 0.8 km away). With nursery provision from age two, it also catches children early, and its mixed, non-religious character means it draws from a broad cross-section of the area.
