We draw on the wealth of expertise and experience that exists within the Mill Hill community to show pupils the range of pathways available to them:

On leaving Mill Hill, pupils automatically become life-time members of the Old Millhillians Club and continue to benefit from the professional and social networks the club has to offer.
- Parents: We draw on the talent and experience from within our parent community to offer different perspectives from a range of industries.
