"Great school, a few teething issues"

We moved to Blandford and found Milldown to be a great fit for our child. The staff are all very supportive and the curriculum is engaging. However, we've had a few issues with communication and organisation. Overall, it's a wonderful school and we're grateful to be part of the community.

"A wonderful school that really cares"

We moved away from Blandford but our child still talks about their time at Milldown fondly. The staff were all so kind and supportive, and the school has a wonderful Christian ethos. We're so grateful to have had our child at the school and would highly recommend it to anyone in the area.
