Welcome to Greenleaf

Primary School

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to Greenleaf Primary School.

At Greenleaf, we want every child to feel happy, valued and inspired to achieve their very best. Our motto, Aim High, Work Hard, Be Kind, is at the heart of everything we do and reflects both our ambition for every child and the values that guide our school community.

At Greenleaf, children are encouraged to aim high, discover what they love and grow in confidence. We offer a rich and exciting curriculum, exceptional opportunities for outdoor play and a caring, inclusive environment where every child is known and valued.

A School Where Children Flourish

Situated in the heart of Walthamstow, Greenleaf is a warm, inclusive and ambitious school where children and adults flourish together.

From their first days in Reception to the end of Year 6, we support every child to grow in confidence, discover their strengths and develop a genuine love of learning. We want our pupils to leave us as confident, capable and compassionate young people, ready for their next steps.

Learning Inside and Beyond the Classroom

We provide a broad, engaging curriculum that builds strong foundations in Reading, Writing and Maths while giving children opportunities to explore their interests, develop new skills and discover the wider world.

Learning extends well beyond the classroom through educational visits, projects, extracurricular activities and a wide range of clubs. From sport and drama to languages, arts and crafts, there are opportunities for every child to try something new, develop their talents and have fun.

As an accredited International School, we encourage our children to celebrate diversity, explore different cultures and develop an understanding of the wider world. We want them to become curious, confident and responsible global citizens.

The Power of Play

Play is an important part of childhood and a valued part of life at Greenleaf.

Through our commitment to OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning), children have rich opportunities to develop creativity, teamwork, resilience and independence through imaginative, high-quality outdoor play.

In May 2026, we were incredibly proud to receive the OPAL Platinum Award, the highest level of recognition for outstanding play provision. This is a fantastic achievement and reflects the commitment of our whole school community to giving children the very best opportunities to play, explore and learn.

Caring, Ambitious and Inclusive

Our dedicated staff combine high expectations with excellent pastoral care. We know that children learn best when they feel safe, supported and valued, and we work hard to ensure every child feels a strong sense of belonging.

Strong relationships are at the heart of our school. By working closely with pupils, families and our wider community, we create an environment where everyone is encouraged to succeed and thrive.

We also provide high-quality wraparound care, led and delivered by our own school staff. Our breakfast and after-school provision gives families a safe, welcoming and familiar environment for their children before and after the school day.
