What does “with nursery” mean on this Milton Keynes page?

It means the school currently has nursery provision flagged in the live school data. It does not by itself confirm admissions priority or guaranteed progression into Reception.

Does nursery attendance guarantee a Reception place in Milton Keynes?

No. Many schools make it clear that nursery attendance does not guarantee admission into the main school, so parents should still check each school’s admissions policy carefully.

Why use a nursery-specific list for Milton Keynes?

For families focused on the early-years to primary transition, this list makes it easier to compare schools that currently offer nursery provision without manually filtering the wider hub.
