Abbey Grange Church of England Academy

Abbey Grange is a very successful secondary school which became an academy in 2011, and a founder member of Abbey Multi Academy Trust in 2014. Our students come from all over the city to receive an education in which we all work together to stretch them academically, support them pastorally and help them develop socially and spiritually. Within our safe, caring and Christian environment we continually strive for excellence so that we prepare students not only for success whilst at school but sustain them in life after school. Our students flourish in an environment which is welcoming, caring, calm, disciplined, inspiring and purposeful.
