Oakgrove School is a specialist Humanities College in the Middleton district of south-east Milton Keynes.

Oakgrove School opened in September 2005 with slightly more than 300 students, and currently has over 1000 students on roll in Years 7-12 due to the opening of the £15 million Sixth Form Centre in September 2009.^[1]

The school has had one OFSTED report scoring ‘outstanding’ or ‘good’ in every aspect. The school has been visited by many celebrities, such as Fearne Cotton, The Scary Guy, and Honey Ryder.^[2][3][4]

The school is now in the process of converting to academy status. ^[5]
