If you are considering sending your children to Drayton Park School we always welcome visits from parents and children. This is the best way to get a feel for the school and to see how we work first hand. Please ring the school office on 01908 375137 to make an appointment.
Admissions to our school are co-ordinated by Milton Keynes council.
Further information is available by clicking the following https://www.milton-keynes.gov.uk/schools-and-lifelong-learning/school-admissions .
Most children live within the catchment area, which is the northern part of the Lakes Estate, including Stoke Road south from Plough Corner and the southern boundary being a line from Stoke Road through the Warren playground, Sir Herbert Leon School and Drayton Road. However, we welcome children from outside this area providing there are spaces within the year group.

Home School Link - Making the transition to us
In order to help your children settle at Drayton Park, we welcome the children into the school for a few sessions in the term before they are due to start school. Nursery staff and a Learning Mentor visit parents and children at home to meet with you and chat through any queries you may have about your child starting school.
