The Grange School uses a house system to unite Old Grangonians by professional areas. In 2002 the House of Health was created, followed by the Houses of Law, Engineering, Business, Farming, Education and Arts & Humanities, now numbering over 800 Old Grangonians. The houses form networks for professional and social collaboration, disseminate topics for senior students, support university internships and project the School's values in society.
The Grange School is governed by the John Jackson Educational Foundation, established to maintain and promote the ideals of Mr John A. S. Jackson and to support the School's English-language education and ethos. The Old Grangonian Club, Fundación Grangonian Spirit of Service (FOGSS), and the Grangonian Society complement the School's community, while the Asociación de Padres y Apoderados (APA) represents parents and guardians and works with School management. The APA Board of Directors includes a President, a Vice President, a Bursar and a Secretary, with level delegates and committees to oversee governance matters.
The Grange School is a British international, coeducational school in Santiago, Chile, serving ages 4 to 18. Its ethos follows English public school traditions and four pillars: Academic, Sport, Arts and Service. The curriculum is bilingual and UK-inspired, with English as the main language of instruction. Lower Prep uses the English Early Years Foundation Stage framework for Prekinder and Kinder, while 1º–2º Básico blends the Chilean National Curriculum with the English National Curriculum. Upper Prep (3º–6º Básico) uses English/National Curriculum syllabuses alongside Chilean requirements, with specialist teaching in Music, Drama, Art and Design Technology. Senior School (7º Básico–4º EM) combines the Chilean curriculum with Cambridge IGCSE and A-Levels; English is a separate subject and many subjects use English textbooks; pupils are bilingual by Senior School. The Grange sits on a 92,000 m2 site with 30,108 m2 built. Facilities include two gyms, a 25-metre pool, a large field (divisible into three pitches) with a 200-metre track, an all-weather hockey pitch, bespoke spaces for music, art and drama, and planned IT enhancements. The Grange Arts Festival (GRAF) and extensive cocurriculars, after-school activities, and international tours enrich learning. English language support is available in seventh grade, and French workshops are offered; leadership and public speaking are fostered through the Duke of Edinburgh Award and MUN.
