I've recently moved house and have a 30m2 patch of ground that I want to
sow a lawn on. The top 10m2 or so used to have a patio laid on top of it
so it is really sandy, maybe 3 inches or so of sand before you reach any
type of soil.

The rest of the ground is generally slightly sandy and quite compact.

What should I do to prepare this ground for sowing grass seed on?

Dig it over, remove stones and level it. Grass likes sandy soil.
If it is VERY poor, adding some topsoil might help.
