Abbey Grange Church of England High School is a secondary school on the edge of Moor Grange, Leeds, West Yorkshire. It is the only Church of England aided secondary school in Leeds.
Various other forms of the name are currently in use on the school's own website and in official lists, including "Abbey Grange Church of England High School Humanities College", "Abbey Grange High School Humanities College", "Abbey Grange High School", "Abbey Grange Humanities College" and "Abbey Grange School", but "Abbey Grange Church of England High School" is used by "Education Leeds" [cite web|url=http://www.educationleeds.co.uk/SchoolDataSystem/ui/school.aspx?schoolid=1|title=View School Details|publisher=Education Leeds|accessdate=2008-09-06] and OFSTED.
The school has 1,200 students between the ages of 11 and 17, and 80 members of staff.
The school was awarded Humanities College status in 2006. Miss Helen Yarrow was appointed the Head of Humanities. Due to the new status many departments were repositioned in the school to allow more rooms for humanities lessons. Abbey Grange recently underwent Offsted investigation and was evaluated very favorably in all areas, and particularly in its Christian ethos. The school's ethos is to "educate, nurture and empower".
