Hello I am new to Milton Keynes (Fairfields). Could you recommend good secondary schools please?

kents hill park is a good school. it is a 13 minute drive from you, and while your closest school is The radcliffe academy, it is rated 'requires improvement' by ofsted. all the best x

Thank you so much @sleepismysuperpower1. Any feedback on Shenley Brook End please?

Shenley has a catchment area which doesn't stretch as far as Fairfield's. Hazeley is closer to you but their catchment won't stretch as far as Fairfield's either.

shenley brook is an ofsted rated good school. I was only talking about Kents hill because it is a fairly new school (modern) and my friend's daughter goes there x

If you are looking at in year entry then the admissions team were very good at letting me know where vacancies were.

I know that Denbigh, Hazeley and Shenley have defined (catchment) areas and are very popular so have massive waiting lists. If you are looking for a Sixth Form place (September) then the deadline was January.

Thank you very much to you both. The information given has been very helpful
