Greenpark Academy
About Greenpark Academy
Greenpark Academy is a state primary in King’s Lynn and West Norfolk that currently educates 357 pupils against a capacity of 420, meaning it is not yet full but clearly in demand. The proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals stands at 41. 5%, well above the national average and a strong indicator that the school serves a community with higher-than-average levels of disadvantage. That demand is tangible: for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 90 applications for just 56 places, with 60 of those coming as first preferences. It is officially oversubscribed, with an oversubscription ratio of 1. 61, and 55 first-preference offers were made. The school is mixed, non-denominational, and has no sixth form, but does offer nursery provision for children aged three and up. Headteacher Jill Graver leads a school that, on paper, is a popular local choice for families in the area, particularly those looking for a primary that reflects the demographic realities of its catchment.
