The school admits boys from age 11 to 18, and since 1985 girls for the sixth form only. The school has academy status, hosts the Wirral Able Children Centre,[1] and has been awarded Sportsmark Gold and Investors in People status. GeographyThe school stands in a residential area of Wirral close to the Dee Estuary. Pupils come primarily from Wirral, Deeside and Cheshire areas.[2] The main site at the top of Caldy Hill is occupied by the school buildings, sports cages and field, with a larger field located over Grammar School Lane. A mile southeast of the main school buildings, along Column Road/Telegraph Road, are the Glasspool Playing Fields including 3 rugby pitches, a cricket square and a sand-based artificial hockey field. The school is surrounded by suburban housing development and the protected heathlands and woods of Grange, Caldy and Thurstaston. School history and statusFounded in 1636, Calday Grange Grammar School is Wirral’s oldest surviving grammar school. It was established as a free grammar school on the present site by local landowner William Glegg. From when it started with 12 pupils, the school has grown ainto a establishment of over 1300 students – which includes over 400 male and female students in the Sixth Form.[3] Calday Grange Grammar School became a trust school on 1 January 2009, transferring ownership of the school land and buildings to a Charitable Trust called "The Calday Grange Trust". The Calday Grange Trust is a partnership between Calday Grange Grammar School, The University of Liverpool, Unilever Research and Development and Maestro Services Ltd. Calday Grange Grammar School was the first Wirral School to convert to Trust Status.[4] In September 2011, the school informed parents that "The School has received notification from Companies House that the Calday Grange Trust Company has been dissolved. This has been notified to the Governing Body who contacted Wirral Local Authority and indicated their wish to revert to the Foundation Schools Instrument of Government".[5] In July 2011, the process for converting to an Academy school was begun, and the school converted to academy status with effect from 1 January 2013.[6] PerformanceIn 2010 the school was inspected and judged Good.[7][8] In 2016 the school was again judged Good.[9] In 2015 96% of the year group achieved 5 GCSE passes at grades A* to C with 96.2% gaining at 5 A* to C grades including English and Maths. Four students achieved the highest possible level of 10 or more A* grades.[10] In 2015 Calday School received its best A level results since 2010 with a pass rate of 99.2% at A*-E grades.[11]{{better|date=February 2019}} ExtracurricularSportCombined cadet forceThe school maintains a Combined Cadet Force.
