Principal’s Welcome

Welcome to Milgate Primary School! As an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, we offer an inclusive and dynamic learning environment that encourages students to become curious, critical thinkers with a strong sense of empathy and global awareness. Through the Primary Years Programme (PYP), we foster student agency and provide opportunities for leadership, voice, choice, and action in both local and global contexts. As a School Wide Positive Behaviour (SWPB) school, we are committed to creating a safe, supportive, and respectful environment where every student can thrive. I warmly welcome you to our school community and look forward to supporting your child’s learning journey.
