About Greenside Primary School

Greenside Primary School in Leeds is a state primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, currently operating below its full capacity with 277 pupils against 325 places. Its intake reflects a moderate level of disadvantage, with 13.7% of pupils eligible for free school meals — lower than the national average for primary schools, which typically sits around 23-24%. Demand for places is notably high: for the 2025/26 admissions cycle, the school received 166 applications for just 30 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 5.53 applicants per spot. Of those, 33 families put Greenside as their first preference, and all 30 first-preference offers were taken up. This level of competition suggests the school is a popular choice among local families, despite not being oversubscribed to the same degree as some of the highest-performing primaries in the Leeds area.
