Greenfield Primary School

About Greenfield Primary School

Greenfield Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary for children aged 5 to 11 in Barnsley, with a school capacity of 312. The school also offers nursery provision, which can be a practical advantage for families looking for continuity from early years into Reception. While the data doesn’t include current pupil numbers or free school meal percentages, the fact that the school has a published capacity figure suggests it operates within a defined intake. The most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated the school Good overall, a significant improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2012, when it was judged to require improvement. That earlier inspection gave the school a 3 for overall effectiveness, leadership and management, and early years provision. The 2023 ungraded inspection confirmed the school remains Good, with leadership and management also rated Good. There is no admissions data to indicate oversubscription, but the school’s location in Barnsley places it within a local authority where only three out of 77 primary schools hold an Outstanding rating, so a Good rating here is a solid benchmark.
