"A Happy and Supportive Environment"

I've been thoroughly impressed with The Grove Special School so far. My child loves the new play swing in the yard and has made some great friends. The values of the school, such as valuing learning and being kind to each other, really resonate with me.

"Mixed Feelings"

While my child seems to enjoy The Grove Special School, I've had some mixed feelings about the school's approach to some issues. I like the emphasis on independence and encouraging children to have a 'voice', but sometimes I worry that the school could do more to engage with parents. Overall, it's been a decent experience so far.

"Excellent Staff and Facilities"

When my child left The Grove Special School, I was sad to leave such a wonderful community behind. The staff were always supportive and the facilities, like the outdoor learning spaces, were really impressive. I'd definitely recommend the school to anyone.
