We’ve had a bustling summer at Grove School with contractors working hard to bring significant improvements to our buildings and site. Here’s what’s new:
🔹 New cladding on our Science block 🔹 Outdoor gym installed on our field 🔹 Fresh decoration for both the interior and exterior of our school 🔹 New roofing for T-Block 🔹 A massive new cold water tank
Additionally, we’ve made fantastic enhancements to both the new Sixth Form Centre and The Shore, including a new roof and a brilliant new student entrance.
Check out the before and after photos to see the amazing transformation of Team Grove’s environment! 📸🌟
It's changed a bit since I was there. My last year @ the Grove was the first year it opened when it was then called the Grove secondary modern. Long time ago.

We are thrilled to announce that Lily once again made the Under 15 School Games squad! This will be the final Seven Stars squad before the new season brings exciting changes next year. 🎉
Lily represented us at Loughborough as she competed against all the other franchise squads. We’re incredibly proud! 🏆
We can’t wait to hear all about your amazing experience Lily! 💪
A huge welcome to all our Year 8 through to Year 13 students! It’s been absolutely brilliant to see everyone back from their summer break, full of energy and ready for the year ahead.
Many of you may have already spotted the brand new outdoor gym that’s been installed just for you! We’re excited to share that it will be open for use during social times. 💪
Welcome back, Team Grove—let’s make this year our best one yet! 🙌
Yesterday, Year 7 had a fantastic first day with us here at Team Grove, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter! Their morning kicked off with an inspiring chat from Mr. Allsopp, followed by staff forming a guard of honour as our newest students began their seven-year journey with us.
The day was filled with friendship building, a sense of belonging, and lots of excitement. We’re so proud of the brilliant journey that lies ahead for each of them.
Welcome to Team Grove—we’re delighted to have you here as part of our community, this includes students and their families and friends!
Why not come and see for yourself - our open evening will take place on 24th September from 4:30pm - 7:30pm - no need to book, just pop along💙
Good luck to the new year 7’s! Spent two fab years in this lovely building as a sixth former back in 2000. One of my fondest memories was a history project we took part in with Mr Herring learning about the people who used to live and work there.
In fact it started a life long love of Georgian houses for me!
✨Grove School is delighted to announce that its students have achieved outstanding results in this year's GCSE examinations, with exceptional performances in a variety of subjects.✨
Headteacher Mitch Allsopp praised the students' achievements, stating, "Having only began here as Headteacher in January, I am incredibly proud of the hard work, determination and focus that our students demonstrated in the approach to their exams – today is a chance to celebrate this commitment. In the short time that I have known them, I have been so impressed by their dedication to their studies. I would like to wish them all the best of luck as they start a new chapter, with many of them staying here at our Sixth Form. I wish them all the very best as they take the next steps in their education."
Grove School has seen a significant number of students achieving top grades, further establishing the school’s reputation for academic excellence and student support. Some of the stand out performers include Lara Shotton, who achieved 7 grade 9 GCSEs, with all of her outcomes a grade 7 and above; Niamh Lynch, who achieved 4 grade 9 GCSEs; Leon Jackson, who achieved 2 grade 9 GCSEs, 5 grade 7 GCSEs and a Level 2 Distinction-star for Engineering; and Samuel Allen who achieved a grade 9 and grade 8 in both of his English GCSEs.
Amongst many areas of success, we are particularly pleased to see once again the exceptionally strong results in the English Literature and Language, Art and ICT, with large numbers of students achieving the top grades. Students have worked exceptionally hard and these excellent results are a tribute to their commitment and endeavour. These excellent results provide the strong foundations for the next stages of academic study for our students.
The entire school community joins in celebrating these achievements and looks forward to continued success in the future.
For more information about our school and Sixth Form, please visit grove-school.co.uk We also have remaining spaces on some of our Level 3 courses for September 2024. If you would like any further information or wish to enrol, please contact our Director of Sixth Form Mrs Warrender-Dodds at [email protected]
Really pleased for all the students who worked hard. But why single out and name the top achievers?
Nearly all the students worked just as hard, but may not have the academic ability to fly so high!
Please just congratulate all of them, as it's not about the achievement grades, but the hard work they put in.
And to those who didn't get what they wanted, don't despair, it's not the end of the world! Many successful celebrities and business people didn't do well in exams, but went on to do great things!
Find what you are good at and enjoy, and go for it!
To every single student!
Well done!!
