At Spring Grove we specialise in free range children: we will develop all who join Spring Grove to their full potential, academically, socially, physically and emotionally in a supportive, caring and friendly community. We are able to do this because we have small classes in which our children receive expert attention. Within a beautiful rural setting our school is small enough for us to know every child and their family and encourage them to support the school motto of “Always Do Your Best”. Our children are happy and confident and the school owns a wonderful family atmosphere but to find out what we are really about you need to pay us a visit.

We are a recognised member of the IAPS and offer a wide range of subjects and extra-curricular activities to which this web-site bears testament, and are at the same time unique in many ways and enjoy pushing the boundaries of conventional education. If you wish to know more about how we prepare children for their next schools (including grammar schools via the Kent Test) then please click on the Education link to the left of this column.

We love to sing, play, create, talk, laugh, act and run; above all, we love to learn. We have the ideal setting as it is small enough for every child to be known. Our teachers are interested in all aspects of our children’s progress and we work closely with parents in ensuring that every child fulfills their potential. Our classes are small ensuring that each child receives maximum attention. I am confident that Spring Grove children move to their next schools well-prepared for their next stage of learning.

It is likely that you are reading this because you are trying to make a crucial decision about your child’s future. My staff and I would want to reassure you that a Spring Grove education is a fantastic investment and in order to understand the nature of such an investment I would urge you to visit us. You will meet staff and pupils and receive a very warm and friendly welcome.

If you would like to find out more, please telephone the school and make an appointment to visit on 01233 812337 or email us at office@springgroveschool.co.uk.

Hilary and I very much look forward to welcoming you to Spring Grove.
