About Greenfields Community Primary School

Greenfields Community Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 36 applications for just 24 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.5, meaning for every place available there were one and a half families hoping to secure it. Of those 36 applications, 23 were first-preference choices, and all 23 of those families were offered a place. This level of demand suggests a strong reputation in the community, though the school does not publish a formal parent recommendation percentage. The school is led by headteacher Gemma Robertson and caters to children aged 1 to 11, with nursery provision on site. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in October 2022, confirmed that the school remains Good, a rating it has held consistently across its previous graded inspections.
