My child has thrived here and I've seen a big improvement in their confidence and self-esteem. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — 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. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — 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.

The school's focus on outdoor learning and the use of the sports facilities really helped her develop physically and mentally. *(Mar 2021)*
