The boy pleaded guilty to a charge of sexual assault at a hearing at Wycombe Youth Court on February 25, and was sentenced following his plea.
The court heard how the boy committed the offence by sexually touching the victim without her consent.
In UK law, offenders cannot be named until they turn 18. Victims of sexual crimes are entitled to life-long anonymity.
