The Charles Read Academy
Built in 1963 as a 'Secondary Modern' school, and becoming a comprehensive after the 1965 Labour government attempted to end selection. In 1999 it was renamed the Charles Read High School,taking the name from the ancient grammar school in the village (Image)
It converted to an academy in January 2011 and was taken over by West Grantham Academies Trust. This body decided to close the school in 2013, raising many questions about how they had come to own the freehold, and after a considerable local storm control was passed to the Stamford-based David Ross Foundation instead of closing.
