- **5/5** — Excellent School: We've been at Milefield Primary for 3 years now and couldn't be happier. The staff are all so supportive and caring, especially the Reception class. The school's values of Engage, Inspire, Empower, Learn are really shown in everything they do. *(Jan 2022)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Experience: I had a mixed experience with Milefield Primary, my child attended the school for 2 years. The staff were all friendly and welcoming but I felt the school could have done more to support my child's learning difficulties. The focus on Engage, Inspire, Empower, Learn is a great idea but it didn't quite translate to the classroom experience for my child. *(Dec 2020)*
