Ofsted ratings are a snapshot in time. We focus on schools that held an "Outstanding" rating in their most recent full inspection. However, ratings can change, so we always recommend verifying the latest report via the official Ofsted portal.
It's also important to note that a 1-mile radius is a guidance tool, not an official catchment boundary. Milton Keynes City Council uses specific criteria, including oversubscription levels and straight-line distance, which can vary annually.
Expert Advice for Parents
"Before offering on any home, we always recommend checking the school's latest Ofsted report and the council's school admissions map."

Beyond Ofsted grades, savvy parents look at School League Tables. These focus on Key Stage 2 outcomes, including the percentage of pupils meeting expected standards in core subjects.
It's vital to note that academic progress measures are often a better indicator of teaching quality than raw attainment scores alone. We encourage parents to use the government's Compare School Performance service to see multi-year trends.

Secondary allocations in Milton Keynes are driven by distance and feeder primary relationships. Popular Outstanding primaries often feed into high-demand secondaries like:
