About Greasbrough Primary School

Greasbrough Primary School’s Key Stage 2 results sit comfortably above the Rotherham local authority average, with 67% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to the LA average of 60%. That seven-point gap places the school 33rd out of 84 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top half locally. The school also outperforms the LA average on individual subjects: 75% hit the expected standard in reading, 72% in writing and 69% in maths. Where Greasbrough really stands out is at the higher end — 42% of pupils achieved a higher standard in reading, a strong figure that suggests the school is stretching its more able readers. Maths at the higher level is lower at 19%, and writing at 8%, so the challenge is uneven across subjects. Still, with a Progress 8 figure not available for this primary, the headline takeaway is that Greasbrough is a solidly above-average performer in a local authority where the typical school is a little behind.
