Employer Description:

Greywood Primary Academy is a new build primary school in Lichfield. 

 

The school has been built to accommodate the increase in demand for primary places from the nearby St John’s Grange and Cricket Lane developments.  The school will have space for 210 pupils and will officially open to nursery and reception children in 2026. 

 

The name Greywood Primary Academy was chosen as the word ‘Greywood’ has many layers of meaning which really resonate.  ‘Greywood’ is intrinsically linked to the historical origins and meaning of Lichfield’s name, referencing the ash and elm trees which dominated the landscape when the ancient settlement was forming and gaining its identity. 
 

Greywood Primary Academy is part of Primitas learning Partnership, a successful Multi Academy Trust with community engagement at the heart of its educational vision.  It already runs several successful schools in the area including Erasmus Darwin Academy, Henry Chadwick Primary School, Highfields Primary Academy, Holly Grove Primary Academy, The Friary School, Queen’s Croft High School and Ridgeway Primary Academy. More information about Primitas can be found at https://www.primitas.co.uk/

 

Primitas has been working closely with Staffordshire County Council and the Department for Education (DfE) to prepare for the arrival of the first children in September 2026.
