Grangewood Independent School

In September 1980 the school moved to its present site, leasing the lower hall of the Plashet Park United Reformed Church.

By this time the number of pupils had increased to twenty and the school received ‘Final Registration’ by the then Department of Education and Science.

Early in 1989 the church announced that it would be closing and the school obtained a short lease on the whole of the site.

In the years since, a running programme of improvement and refurbishment has transformed the school and a sixth class has been added.

The total school roll (as of June 2012) was 82 pupils which includes a mixed year 5/6 class in Key Stage 2.
