  • Woodhouse Grove School Girl Boarder Is Interesting, Busy and Above All – Inspirational
    Woodhouse Grove School Agents Handbook www.woodhousegrove.co.uk Welcome to Boarding at the Grove Woodhouse Grove first opened its doors with just nine boys in 1812, as a boarding school for the sons of Methodist Ministers. Over the last 200 years the diversity of our pupils has changed but the school’s growth, decisions and values have always been made based on its fundamental reason for being here, in that we are a “home” for our pupils. As the mix of day pupils to boarders has changed, our vision and purpose remains the same; to provide a home from home experience to every one of our boarding pupils and provide all the ingredients to encourage our boarders to be individuals and to ensure we provide an environment where all their contributions are valued. All our boarders are encouraged to be as active as possible in promoting positive attitudes from academic work to extra-curricular activities. All international students are encouraged to integrate into the Grove life smoothly, using our buddy scheme and with the support of our ESOL department. Support is given both academically and socially through a team of highly experienced boarding staff across our houses, providing pupils with academic guidance when needed, friendly conversations when needed and perhaps most importantly fun when needed! The progress of each pupil is monitored by heads of year in school and by a house tutor in the boarding house where regular meetings take place to support, advise and encourage. During the week we offer an extensive evening programme of activities to our boarders and a fun filled weekend programme with numerous trip opportunities on Sundays.
