Who, what where why and how can be used to start an interrogative sentence, and can be a sentence on their own as declaratives understood , or as exclamatories.

The word 'when' is also used to introduce dependent clauses, such as the famous clause "when in the course of human events" or the more pedestrian "when you go to the store." Either of these, when followed by a comma and an independent clause, could start a sentence.

Yes, it is grammatically correct to start a sentence with "when" as a subordinating conjunction to introduce a dependent clause. For example: "When I arrived at the party, everyone was already dancing."
