Akeley Wood School, located between Buckingham and Milton Keynes, provides private education for children from Nursery to Sixth Form. The day school, with three stunning private campuses, is built on the community; generations of families have proudly worn the Akeley blazer during its 70-year history.
We value the traditions and longstanding family ties that have taken root over the years while continuing to improve and grow, for example through investment in the buildings, grounds and facilities.
Outside of the classroom, pupils are spoilt for choice with extracurricular activities ranging from archery to wake-boarding, robotics and rock climbing.
