  Akeley Wood School  
Akeley Wood is a happy, energetic school. We are informal and unpretentious in our approach, with an emphasis on good manners, a friendly discipline, and looking after others. We strive for high academic standards and the results achieved in public examinations are impressive. The school occupies three independent sites near Milton Keynes and each of the schools is organised to meet the changing needs of the independent age groups. Although all three schools have their own location they all share our very special family atmosphere.
