Milbourne Lodge is a co-educational pre-prep and preparatory school for pupils aged 4 to 13, located in Esher, Surrey. Founded in 1912, the school is set within 8.5 acres of grounds and occupies a Victorian mansion alongside the purpose-built Hale building. Its ethos combines traditional values, such as courtesy and sportsmanship, with an academic curriculum focused on preparing children for entrance and scholarship exams to senior schools.

A reference from a child's current school is also part of the standard requirements.
