About Grangetown Primary School

Grangetown Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families, with 25 first-preference applications for 27 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, and a total of 34 applications overall. That gives an oversubscription ratio of 1.26, meaning the school is comfortably oversubscribed. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the strong first-preference demand suggests a solid local reputation. The school is led by headteacher Charlotte Mott and serves 284 pupils aged 2 to 11, which is slightly above its official capacity of 266. A significant 72.8 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, reflecting the school's role in a community with higher-than-average deprivation. In its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, the school retained its overall Good rating, with personal development judged Outstanding — the only area to reach that top grade. Behaviour and attitudes, leadership, and the quality of education were all rated Good, as was early years provision.
