About Greenfields Primary School

Greenfields Primary School in Shropshire holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections. The most recent graded inspection, carried out in May 2025, awarded Good marks across every category: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. However, the school’s academic outcomes tell a more complicated story. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, just 46% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure is well below the Shropshire local authority average of 59%, and it places Greenfields 70th out of 88 primary schools in the area, putting it in the bottom half of the county. The school’s national percentile ranking of 84th suggests that, across England, a significant majority of primary schools outperform it on this key measure.
