About Greenwood Primary School

Greenwood Primary School in Ealing is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 171 applications for just 85 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.01, meaning more than two families applied for every available spot. Of those applicants, 73 put Greenwood as their first preference, and all 73 received an offer. This level of demand suggests a strong reputation among parents, though the school does not publish a formal parent-view recommendation percentage. Headteacher Karen Silvester leads a large primary with 645 pupils on roll, just five short of its capacity of 650, so the school is effectively full. The most recent Ofsted inspection in October 2022 rated the school Good overall, with every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — all judged Good. The previous inspection in 2012 also rated the school Good, so it has maintained a consistent standard over a decade.
