"Amazing Nursery and Staff!"

I'm so impressed with the Nursery at South Grove Primary. My child was nervous at first, but the staff made her feel so welcome and comfortable. The facilities are excellent and I love how they encourage learning through play.

"A Few Hiccups but Overall Good"

We've been at South Grove Primary for a year now and while it's been a mixed bag, I think it's a good school. The Reception class (RB) has been a bit disorganized at times, but the teachers are lovely and my child is learning lots.

"Exceptional Support for SEND"

As a parent of a child with SEND, I was blown away by the support and care provided by the school. The SENCO, Claudia, is an absolute star and went above and beyond to ensure my child's needs were met.
