Check the area around this school
17th of 35 primary schools in Hammersmith and Fulham we can score, 36 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.7/10 against 2,841 of them, against 9.2/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 87.0 · 96 | 40% | 3.82 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 25% | 2.18 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Greenside Primary School
Overview
Greenside Primary School continues to be a good school, described as a "vibrant and welcoming community" where pupils’ well-being is central. Leaders have high ambitions for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, who achieve well in a supportive environment.
Strengths
- Pupils are "kind to each other and polite to adults," creating a safe and happy atmosphere where they feel supported.
- The curriculum is "ambitious for all pupils," with clear sequencing in most subjects and effective assessment strategies to address learning gaps.
- A "well-sequenced phonics curriculum" ensures most pupils become accurate and fluent readers, fostering an "early love of reading."
- Staff are skilled at meeting the needs of pupils with SEND, ensuring they access the same ambitious curriculum as their classmates.
- Pupils demonstrate excellent behaviour and attendance, with lessons rarely disrupted by off-task behaviour.
Areas to improve
- In the early years, staff should be better trained to identify what children need to know in all areas of learning to ensure they are well prepared for Year 1.
- In a few foundation subjects, subject plans must be sequenced more precisely to help pupils consistently deepen their understanding and build on prior knowledge.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
