Admissions - School

Millbrook Combined School and Nursery provides education for children aged 2-11 on the western side of High Wycombe. The current number of pupils at the school is 700.

The intended admission number to Reception for the school year 2026-2027 is 90. 

Reception to Year 6

Traditionally, pupils have started Reception at Millbrook in the September of the school year during which their 5th birthday falls. We recognize that this is not always appropriate for all children and happily discuss start dates on an individual basis as required. 

We offer home visits to the parents of children joining our Reception classes. We also hold an induction session for the new Reception intake at the beginning of July. This is an opportunity for the children to have their first experience of being in the classroom. Before this we hold an induction meeting for parents to find out about starting school in Reception and further information about the school. 

For further information on Reception admissions, please refer to the Buckinghamshire Council website.

Please note that even if your child attends any of the Millbrook Nursery classes, Buckinghamshire Council Admissions Team requires you to apply for a Reception place separately

In-year admissions process

Whilst we welcome informal approaches to the school for in-year admissions, Buckinghamshire Council Admissions Team deal with all in-year admissions. If you would like your child to come to Millbrook Combined School, please speak to us or please refer to the Buckinghamshire Council website.

Once you have accepted an in-year admission with Buckinghamshire Council Admissions team to join our school we will invite you to attend the school and we will provide you with an admissions pack to complete and return to us. Once reviewed we will then offer a start date for your child to join us.

If you have any further questions regarding admissions, please email the admissions email address: admissions@millbrook.bucks.sch.uk
