Last week, Mr Allsopp attended the High Sheriff of Shropshire Awards in Telford, where he and everyone at Grove were recognised for the great and valuable services we provide to our community.
With over thirty awards presented on the night, it was inspiring to see so many people celebrated for their positive impact across Shropshire.
A huge well done to our students, staff and families who continue to make a real difference in our community and beyond 😊

We were delighted to welcome back one of our Grove School alumni, Emily, who returned to share her experience of applying to university and life as a university student, especially for those considering a future in medicine.
Emily spoke honestly about the rewards and challenges of university study and offered valuable insight into what students can expect. She also reflected on how Sixth Form now feels like a strong stepping stone that prepares students well for the independence and expectations of university. It was fantastic to see Emily again and hear all about her journey so far.
Her visit was inspiring and reassuring for students exploring their next steps, particularly those considering a medical pathway. If you would like to share your experiences with our Sixth Form we would love to hear from you.

We’re excited to introduce our brand-new animation, highlighting the incredible support available to children and young people through The Wave system and The Shore.
This engaging animation shows how our schools create a nurturing environment where every learner feels supported, valued and empowered to thrive.
From tailored learning plans to emotional and social support, we’re shaping brighter futures together.
🎓 Think bigger with Open6 - your Sixth Form, your way ✨
Stay at your local Sixth Form with your friends and teachers, then pick the subjects that suit you across our Trust. Specialist courses use smart hybrid learning with recorded teacher audio and whiteboard, plus weekly face-to-face subject seminars for extra support and discussion.
Your timetable blends on-site lessons, supported hybrid sessions and independent study so you can focus on what matters most.
The result is powerful: independence, digital literacy, resilience and confidence that set you up for uni, apprenticeships and future careers.
Myth: Students prefer only face-to-face learning. Truth: Our pilot students love the flexibility and the weekly seminars.
Ready to shape your path with more choice, more flexibility and stronger support? It's not too late to apply for September 2026!

Thank you to Higher Horizons+ for delivering their UniFacts programme with some of our Year 7 students 🎓
The sessions helped our students explore their options, challenge common misconceptions, and understand the real value of further and higher education, including graduate outcomes.
Our students asked brilliant questions and left feeling more confident about their next steps 💡
