The Grange School was initially a community school and converted to Academy status in 2013 when Sundorne School had also converted and sponsored the school, with both schools coming under the aegis of the Shrewsbury Academies Trust.[3] The school offered GCSEs, BTECs, NVQs, City & Guilds courses and ASDAN awards as programmes of study for pupils.
