"A supportive and inclusive community"

I've been really impressed with the way The Grove Junior School encourages kids to try new things and take risks. My child has loved the extra-curricular programs and the teachers have been fantastic at supporting them in and out of the classroom.

We've been at The Grove Junior School for a year now and I'm so impressed with the facilities, the teachers and the emphasis on Respect, Responsibility and Resilience. My child has thrived here and I've seen a big improvement in their confidence and self-esteem.

"Some ups and downs but generally pleased"

We're still getting used to the school but I'm pleased with the effort the teachers are making to engage my child. The facilities are great and I love the idea of the school's values, but I've had a few issues with communication and organisation so far.

"A great school for a happy child"

We moved away from Harpenden but I wanted to leave a review because I was so grateful for our time at The Grove Junior School. My daughter loved attending the school and the teachers were always supportive and helpful. The school's focus on outdoor learning and the use of the sports facilities really helped her develop physically and mentally.
