Previously a community school administered by Birmingham City Council, Lordswood Boys' School converted to academy status in January 2013 and joined Lordswood Girls' School as part of Lordswood Academies Trust. In July 2017 Lordswood Boys' School left Lordswood Academies Trust after an extended period in Special Measures entered into after being rated Inadequate in multiple Ofsted inspections.[2] and undergoing a severe drop in the number of students enrolled.[3] Of a school capacity of 733, only 356 were enrolled as of 2 December 2016.[4]

Central Academies Trust took on running of the school as of 1 September 2017.[5] With the building outdated, currently the school is being rebuilt and the original building will be demolished.
