About Greenhill Primary School

Greenhill Primary School sits comfortably above the Bury local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 74% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 64%. That ten-point gap places the school 9th out of 46 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top 20% locally and the top 22% nationally. It also outperforms the LA average on individual subjects: 83% of pupils hit the expected standard in both reading and maths, and 91% did so in writing. Higher-attaining pupils are well represented too, with 20% achieving the higher standard across all three subjects. The school’s overall score of 74 on the KS2 combined measure confirms it as a strong performer within Bury, though it sits behind the three top-ranked peers in the area, which all score 85 or above.
