About Us - At Millfield School in Street, Somerset

About Us

Millfield is distinctively different. From its foundation in 1935 through to the present day the school has inspired generations of students to immerse themselves in The Millfield Way to discover their personal brilliance. Millfield has the resource and attitude to bring together key staff to provide an education and experience that honours the individual child at the centre. This doesn’t happen in other schools. Academic study, cultural and sporting endeavours set every student on the path to success, going into the world with confidence and maturity to write their own futures, succeeding in all walks of life and supporting those around them. 
 

We believe in the goodness of young people, the importance of curiosity, caring attitudes and a shared mindset connecting students, teachers, coaches and parents within the school community. Millfield provides:

  • A learning community where being different and discovering individual brilliance is the norm
  • Enriched relationships to create connectedness, memories and friendships that can last a lifetime and an emphasis on the power of student voice
  • Respect for the quiet confidence of those less forthright yet committed to achieve
  • Outstanding facilities and small class sizes to enable a culture where each student is supported and challenged
  • Sophisticated use of digital technology for learning and understanding how to use it responsibly

We all want what is best for our children. I hope that you will enjoy our website's expression of Millfield's unique offer and I look forward to welcoming you to the school.

Mr Gavin Horgan, Headmaster
