Dear Parents, Carers and Friends,

Welcome to The Grove Junior School website, which we have designed to keep you informed about our school, as well as to give you a flavour of what we do, our staff, our governors and to celebrate the fantastic achievements of our children.

Our school is a vibrant and caring school, where we put much emphasis on creativity and inclusion for all. We also encourage our children to be aspirational in everything they undertake, as well as having an expectation that they have a mutual respect for each other and all members of our school community.

We value the part that our parents and families play in the life of our school, and welcome their partnership in developing and encouraging their children’s learning.

Teaching and learning at The Grove is of a high quality, led by a talented and hard-working staff, and we constantly strive to improve and develop our practice in all areas of the curriculum, and for all children.

We also provide a particularly varied and full extra – curricular timetable, where children are able to develop their musical, sporting, acting, dancing, artistic, technological and other skills.

The Grove is a successful and happy school, and we hope you enjoy finding out more about us on our website.

Lorna Urquhart

Headteacher
