MILLBROOK PRIMARY SCHOOL

What MILLBROOK PRIMARY SCHOOL does

Millbrook Primary School is a UK state-funded maintained primary school located at Gews Corner, Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, serving approximately 300-420 pupils aged 4-11 from Reception through Year 6. The school is part of the Bonneygrove and Millbrook Primary Federation formalized in 2024 under Strategic Plans 2024-2027, sharing Executive Headteacher Craig Hamilton and a federation-wide Head of Inclusion (Miss Hayley Stevens) with sister school Bonneygrove Primary. Day-to-day operations are led by Head of School Mrs Jespy Pereira Barker, supported by an EYFS Lead Assistant Headteacher (Ms Vanessa Cain), SENCO (Ms Rachael Sakalas), Learning Mentor (Ms Karen Parkyns), and 38 total staff.

The school delivers the full statutory primary curriculum across EYFS, Key Stage 1, and Key Stage 2, with structured phonics and early reading programmes, SEND provision (Individual Healthcare Plans, EHCPs, support for autism/ADHD/dyslexia), and enrichment activities including violin lessons, theatre productions, museum trips, and Tottenham Football Training sessions. Core operational technology consists of a Juniper Websites content management platform, the School Comms parent communication app integrated with ParentPay for payments, and HCL Catering for hot school meals. Safeguarding is treated as a primary function with a multi-person Designated Safeguarding Lead team and documented multi-agency working with Hertfordshire safeguarding services.

Millbrook operates under a state-funded revenue model with no tuition fees: income derives from Hertfordshire County Council per-pupil funding, Pupil Premium of £1,320 per eligible pupil, PE/Sports Premium, and parental contributions for Years 3-6 school meals and the Cool Kids after-school club. Universal Free School Meals are provided at no cost to families for Reception, Year 1, and Year 2 pupils. Admissions are routed through Hertfordshire County Council's formal process, restricting enrollment to the local catchment area. The school holds no venture, private equity, or public ownership and is independently governed with Shen Hasekilerden as Chair of Governors.

Regional players

• Andrews Lane Primary School: Cheshunt-area state primary under Hertfordshire County Council delivering the same age-stage curriculum (Reception through Year 6) and serving overlapping residential catchments. Functions as a near-substitute for families choosing between schools in the town.
• Flamstead End School: State primary school also located in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, serving the same local catchment under Hertfordshire County Council. Comparable in size, age range (Reception to Year 6), and community-facing primary offer, making it the most direct competitor for in-catchment enrolments.
• Churchfield Primary School: State primary located in Waltham Cross/Cheshunt within Hertfordshire. Comparable EYFS-to-Year 6 age range, same funding regime, and similar enrichment and SEND operating model, making it a directly substitutable choice for parents in the local catchment.
• Downfield Primary School: Cheshunt-based state primary within the Broxbourne/Hertfordshire local authority footprint. Competes directly for the same pupil cohort and runs a comparable EYFS/KS1/KS2 model with universal free meals for younger years and standard before/after-school arrangements.
• Brookland Junior School: Junior phase state primary (Years 3-6) in Cheshunt operating under Hertfordshire County Council. Shares the same KS2 curriculum, Ofsted framework, and local-authority funding model, and is the natural destination or alternative for Millbrook families transitioning through Key Stage 2.
• Greenfields Primary School: Hertfordshire state primary in the Cheshunt vicinity offering the same Reception-through-Year-6 curriculum and Hertfordshire County Council funding structure. Competes for the same family demographic and offers a comparable enrichment and wraparound-care footprint.

Direct peers

• Reach Academy Feltham: All-through state school in West London combining primary and secondary phases under a single trust. Comparable in delivering the same Reception-through-primary curriculum and SEND-led inclusion ethos, and useful as a benchmark for what a federated/trust model can achieve at greater scale.
• Bonneygrove Primary School: The federation partner school sharing the Executive Headteacher (Craig Hamilton), federation-wide Head of Inclusion, and strategic plans for 2024-2027. Operates the same EYFS-to-Year 6 state primary model under Hertfordshire County Council, with directly overlapping governance and shared services.

Broad incumbents

• Oasis Academy Trust: UK-wide multi-academy trust running multiple primary schools under a federated governance structure. Operates an analogous state-funded primary model with shared back-office services and a community-embedded ethos, broadly comparable to the Bonneygrove and Millbrook federation arrangement.
• ARK Schools: Large UK multi-academy trust operating multiple primary and secondary schools. Although much larger and cross-phase, ARK provides a comparable state-funded primary model with structured inclusion, federation-style shared services, and central curriculum design that mirrors what Millbrook is building within its federation.
