Description:The school possibly dates back to the mid 15th century, having been founded by the Bishop of Lichfield as a Chantry School. It was certainly refounded in around 1553 by Sir John Giffard, his son Thomas, and Dr Matthew Knightley. Nothing of the original school buildings now remain, the school having been rebuilt between 1850-1860.
Brewood Grammar School for boys closed in 1975 after 422 years. At the time of its closure it was one of the few schools in the country offering an 'O-level' course in agriculture having its own farm. The buildings housed a mixed-sex middle school from 1977.
