Welcome

A warm welcome to Mill Hill, one of the UK’s best known and most reputable independent schools. Founded in 1807 by non-conformists, our original mission was to offer an excellent education to young people irrespective of their background, and to do so close to London but away from the pressures of the inner-city. Two hundred years on this belief in excellence, innovation and providing a ‘London in the Countryside’ feel is still central to our work.

As our recent results and ISI inspection show, Mill Hill is an outstanding institution which, in many areas, leads the independent sector. We are fully co-educational with 900 pupils in total, 100 of whom are boarders. We are proud to be the flagship school of the Mill Hill Education Group – the UK’s fastest growing, not-for-profit group of independent schools.

We hope you enjoy clicking around our website, where you will find detailed information on our results, curriculum, pastoral support and co-curricular offer. There is no substitute for a visit however, so do feel free to book in for one of our regular tours here.

With best wishes,

David Benson
Head
