About Greenmount Primary School

Greenmount Primary School on the Isle of Wight was rated Requires Improvement in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a downgrade from the Good rating it received in its previous inspection. The inspection found that while pupils' personal development and behaviour and attitudes were both Good, the quality of education, leadership and management, and early years provision all required improvement. On the key academic measure for primary schools — the percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — Greenmount achieved 53% in the 2023/24 academic year. That is just one percentage point above the Isle of Wight local authority average of 52%, placing the school 15th out of 35 primary schools in the area. Nationally, it sits in the bottom 50% of schools on this metric, ranking 10,016th out of 13,686 primaries. The school's average scores in reading (102) and maths (101) are both close to the national benchmark of 100, but the proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard across all three subjects is just 7%.
