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)

1LO have been making the most of the sunshine (and the brilliant sunshades in the outside classroom) and been out planting in their growing beds. They’ve planted flowering cosmos, climbing sweet peas and visually striking Brussels sprouts. We‘ve discussed how they‘ll need lots of water with this amazing spring weather.

It has been fantastic to be able to sit outside on comfy benches in the shade whilst learning, the only issues is every class wants to be out there! Maybe we need need to build another one 😂☂️🪑🪏👷‍♂️🌳🌱🥦🫜

This Great Wood pupil will certainly be jumping into the weekend! He achieved a Head Teacher’s award for jumping a whopping 1.86m in the Lancaster and Morecambe Sportshall Athletics League. This was a record breaking jump and also means he could clear a horizontal Mr Vincent! Well done! ... See MoreSee Less
