History

The co-educational Waverley Grammar School was situated between Byron Road and Waverley Road, now next to the A45 - Muntz St (B4145) roundabout, and next to Small Heath Park. This school is now Small Heath Leadership Academy.

In 2006, Waverley was recognized as one of the most improved schools at GCSE level in England.

Recently, on 28–29 April 2010 Waverley School was inspected my Her Majesty's inspectors and four additional inspectors. They observed 34 lessons and 38 teachers, four form periods and an assembly. After they had gathered up their notes and came to a decision, Waverley School was officially labelled as an Outstanding school.

The school has expanded in recent years to become an all-through school for primary, secondary and sixth form education.
