About Greenhill Primary School
Greenhill Primary School sits within the Leeds local authority, a large and varied area with 221 primary schools. In the most recent rankings based on the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, Greenhill placed 134th in Leeds, putting it in the bottom half of schools locally. For context, the highest-performing nearby primaries include Harewood Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School, Shadwell Primary School and St Philip's Catholic Primary School, all of which scored significantly higher on the same metric. Greenhill’s ranking reflects a school that serves a community with considerable challenges: 41.3 per cent of its 383 pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The school is led by headteacher Matthew Dawson and was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in December 2024, a rating it has held consistently since its previous graded inspection in 2014.
