About Us
Dear visitor,
Welcome to our website!
Grove Primary School has over 400 pupils and 50 staff. We are the
largest single site primary school in Trowbridge and one of the
biggest in Wiltshire.
Our Vision
We place learning at the heart of all our activities. Everyone
is a learner and we encourage an ethos of openess, enquiry and learning
together.
We have a wealth of talent among our large staff who are encouraged
to develop their skills further and they are key to making learning
fun.
Pupils help to make Grove an exciting place to learn by being fully
involved in generating ideas and making decisions together.
Grove has many links with schools around the globe and this helps
to inform attitudes about the world around us.
We are investing in the future by ensuring that all pupils are computer
literate and have access to new technologies where it enhances learning.

it is a great place to learn.

Why a new school motto and colour badge?
Climbing The
Learning Tree Together
Imagine
An innovative school where children learn about different languages
and cultures. Children learn how to cook and make interesting things.
Children understand how to be healthy. They learn how to play musical
instruments and enjoy sports. Children use wonderful technology
to help their learning. They learn new skills at exciting school
clubs. Children get to learn everything they want to.
A talented school where learning is fun. and exciting. Praise and
help for all to succeed. A school where everyone plays a part in
helping children to learn. There are lots of visits, theme days
and drama opportunities. A school where parents and staff work together
to help children. Talented people such as scientists, sports stars,
authors, musicians, historians and language assistants help you
to learn.
A caring, happy school where children are kind and sensible. Children
share and trust one another. Everyone tries their best and has fun.
Children respect each other and are polite. Children's ideas help
to change things.
A shiny, colourful school which is bright and inviting. A school
with wonderful displays and useful notices. A clean school which
is tidy and safe with new classrooms and enough space for everyone.
A school with plenty of room to put coats and bags. A school with
nice outdoor areas to play and learn in.
Can you imagine this school?
Help us to make it Grove!
