About Greave Primary School

Greave Primary School sits within Stockport’s primary landscape, a local authority with 86 state primary schools and seven rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The school itself ranks 57th out of 67 primaries in the borough on the key stage 2 expected standard measure, placing it in the bottom half of Stockport’s schools. Its top-performing local peers include Gatley Primary School, St John’s Church of England Primary School and Bradshaw Hall Primary School, all of which score significantly higher on the same metric. Greave’s ranking score of 43 puts it well behind those neighbours, but the school still holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 — a grade it has maintained since at least its previous inspection in 2012. Headteacher Jennie Williams leads a mixed, non-denominational primary for pupils aged 5 to 11, with a current roll of 357 children, just above its official capacity of 355.
