"Outstanding education and excellent facilities"

My son has only just started at Watford Grammar School for Boys, but I'm already impressed with the level of care and support he's received. The school's focus on academic achievement, sports and the arts has given him a great sense of direction. I'm also grateful for the range of extracurricular activities and the opportunity for him to participate in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

"Mixed feelings about our experience"

We have mixed feelings about our time at Watford Grammar School for Boys. Our son had a great sports coach and enjoyed participating in the School's fitness program, but we found the homework load to be excessive at times. We appreciated the supportive community, but felt that the school could do more to engage with parents. Overall, it's a good school with some great aspects, but not perfect.
