About Greatfield Park Primary School

Greatfield Park Primary School sits in a competitive Gloucestershire primary landscape, but its headline Key Stage 2 results tell a mixed story. The local authority average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 59 per cent, yet Greatfield Park’s figure is 48 per cent — a notable gap of 11 percentage points. This places the school 147th out of 243 primaries in the county, and in the bottom 50 per cent nationally for this metric. However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. In writing, 73 per cent of pupils met the expected standard, comfortably above the national benchmark, and 65 per cent did so in maths. Reading was the weakest core subject at 60 per cent. The school’s average scaled scores for both reading and maths sit at 103, which is exactly in line with the national average of 100-103, suggesting that while fewer pupils are hitting the combined threshold, those who do are performing solidly.
