"Mixed experience, but overall positive"

While my child has generally enjoyed their time at The Grove, there have been some issues with communication and consistency between teachers. However, I appreciate the school's emphasis on PSHE and the support they provide for children with additional needs. I'm hopeful that they can continue to improve and meet the high expectations I have for them.

"Excellent care and education"

As a parent, I was initially hesitant about The Grove's focus on SEN, but I have been thoroughly impressed by the school's commitment to providing a supportive and challenging environment for all students. My child's educational progress was significant, and I credit the school's dedicated staff and therapies for their success.
