Check the area around this school
45th of 61 primary schools in Greenwich we can score, 62 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 5.9/10 against 4,190 of them, against 6.1/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 40% | 3.11 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 4.0 · 35 | 25% | 0.88 |
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 Greenslade Primary School
Overview
Greenslade Primary School continues to be a good school, where pupils are proud to attend and feel safe and happy. The school provides an ambitious curriculum that enables pupils to learn essential knowledge successfully, supported by effective teaching and a strong sense of community.
Strengths
- Pupils feel safe, with bullying described as not being a problem and rare occurrences being "quickly sorted out".
- The curriculum is "ambitious for all pupils" and well-sequenced, enabling success in subjects like mathematics and music.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive effective support to learn the curriculum alongside their peers.
- Teachers use assessment well to address gaps in knowledge and misconceptions quickly, helping pupils make improvements.
- Attendance rates are above national figures, with leaders working sensitively with families to improve regular attendance.
Areas to improve
- The school needs to ensure all staff develop expertise in teaching phonics to address gaps in knowledge, as variation in practice currently leads to uneven support for building reading fluency and confidence.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
