Welcome to Greatwood School

We aim to bring learning alive, making it exciting and stimulating. We want to give our children a thirst for learning that continues with them throughout their future school experiences and lives. An essential ingredient for this to happen is teamwork. We view education as a joint venture involving everyone- children, parents, staff, governors and the wider community.

We hope that we will be able to depend on your co-operation and support in this partnership to provide the best for every child.

John Ross (Headteacher)

The children and staff sang a special song written to say thank you and to wish her well in her next steps. Mrs Kennedy has recently been teaching children of those she taught years ago; we worked out about 8,000 pupils have benefited from her care. Good Luck, Miss Punter! We’ll miss you. ...
