About Grenoside Community Primary School

Grenoside Community Primary School sits in a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 score for primary schools is 57, but the school itself does not publish a KS2 average in the available data, making a direct headline comparison impossible. What is clear from the local context is that Sheffield has 14 primary schools rated Outstanding out of 131 total, and the nearest Outstanding alternative, Oughtibridge Primary School, is 2.9 kilometres away. Grenoside’s own Ofsted rating of Good, confirmed in an ungraded inspection in June 2024, places it in the solid middle tier of local provision. The school has held a Good rating across both its recent inspections, with the previous graded inspection in January 2019 also awarding Good overall. This consistency suggests a stable school that is performing reliably, even if it does not reach the heights of the top three ranked peers in the area, which include Dobcroft Junior School and Totley Primary School.
