Millgate School is an amazing place that places the child at the centre of everything that we do. To make them develop, grow and progress;we have created a curriculum that is uncompromising in supporting the child's need.

Our curriculum is inspired by stories. Every child arrives with a storythat we make it our business to get to know. Shaped by their narratives and informed by their need, our curriculum sets out an ambitious, chapter by chapter, journey.
