If you would like to look round the school with a view to a place for your child, please contact the office to make arrangements. We look forward to seeing you. We will be holding our last Open Morning before the application deadline for September 26 (15th January) on Thursday 8th January 2026. Our first Open Morning for a September 27 start is June 11th.

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 Great Wood Football Team had another successful evening at the HMPSA Football League, winning four matches, drawing three and losing just one game. They finished the league in third position, qualifying for the Champions League and will play on Monday 9th March and Monday 23rd March.

They showed great team spirit and all worked together defensively, only conceding two goals all evening. Well done Great Wood are proud of you! Another big thank you to Mr Forrest for coaching the team on the evening.

Great Wood took an U11 team to a North West Schools Table Tennis Competition at the weekend. Thank you to the parents for your support and particularly Coach Dennison. All the children tried there best but it was a tough competition .

They started the day by drawing to a school from Merseyside, but then lost to a team from Cheshire .

In the next round, we drew again with a team from Cheshire and then lost in the next to a team from Cumbria , who went on to qualify .

All the players tried there best and didn’t give up and still wanted to continue playing after it had all finished.
