The Mill Hill School
Practically speaking, we provide a curriculum that is forward-looking, builds strengths in the core areas, and is wide and adaptable enough to meet the needs of the twenty-first century. We place just as much emphasis on new, creative, and innovative subjects as we do on traditional academic ones. We are equally proud of our graduates who go on to study art, design, or programming as we are of those who enroll in historically significant colleges to study history or the natural sciences. Our students find success and fulfillment in a wide variety of learning pathways.
Our requirements for students are straightforward: actively participate in your education both at school and at home, don't be afraid to take risks or learn from mistakes, be proud of your achievements, and keep in mind that learning is a long, exciting journey filled with obstacles and opportunities.
