About
Us
The Grove Campus is a large and beautiful site bounded
by the River Tern and the Shropshire Union Canal. Grove
School and Grove College stand together on the site.
Grove Campus is steadily developing to become a centre
of community and life-long learning for all. Its designation
as a specialist Languages College in 2002 was a major
step forward for Grove Campus.
Grove is Market Drayton's secondary school. The school
and college together form a comprehensive school which
admits both boys and girls and provides courses for 11-19
year-old students of all abilities. It serves not only
the town of Market Drayton but also a wide area of Northeast
Shropshire. A considerable number of students from Staffordshire
also attend.
The Grove is a focal point of the community, both for
its buildings and facilities which are widely used outside
normal school hours, and because it is the natural choice
of school for all students in the area.
The staff and Governors
take the responsibility of The Grove being the only school
within this area very seriously. It is their aim for the
community to be proud of its school and for parents to
be happy to know that they have in Grove a school offering
a standard of education that is second to none.
Although Grove School and Grove College are parts of
the same organisation and share staffing any many facilities,
they meet different needs and are described separately
in this website:
