About Greenfields Community Primary School

Greenfields Community Primary School in Maidstone holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. In its latest ungraded inspection in January 2025, inspectors confirmed that standards are being maintained, and notably, the early years provision was rated Outstanding. The most telling academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard: 69% of pupils reached this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year, which sits above the Kent local authority average of 63%. This places the school 16th out of 44 primary schools in the Maidstone district and in the top 50% nationally. With a school capacity of 367 but 423 pupils on roll, Greenfields is clearly a popular choice, and the numbers back that up — it was oversubscribed for 2025/26 entry, receiving 113 applications for just 45 places.
