🎆 Thank You from Team Grove! 🎆

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Fireworks Night on 5th November. With over 2,500 people joining us, it was a fantastic evening and a wonderful celebration for our community.

Thank you to all the staff, volunteers, and visitors who helped make the event such a memorable success. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did, and we look forward to seeing you again next year! ✨🎇

💙 A proud moment for Team Grove 💙
Following our recent Ofsted inspection, we are incredibly proud to share a report that recognises the significant positive changes across The Grove over the past two years.
Inspectors recognised a school where students feel happy, safe, respected and cared for, highlighting:

⭐ Our positive safeguarding culture
⭐ Improved behaviour and attendance
⭐ Calm classrooms and strong relationships
⭐ Our inclusive Five to Thrive approach
⭐ The impact of our Learning for Life centre
⭐ The breadth of opportunities available to students
⭐ Strong student voice and leadership
⭐ Our growing partnership with families and the wider community

But rather than just hearing from us, we wanted our students to tell the story themselves.

🎥 A small group of students have brought the Ofsted report to life, using the inspectors’ own words and sharing what makes them proud of their school

To our students, staff, families, governors and wider community: thank you
. Some of the feedback from parents about the changes at our school has been truly humbling. We never take your support for granted.
There is much to be proud of, and much more still to achieve. Together, we are Team Grove. 💙
