It previously held Science College specialist status and was awarded the Sportsmark by the Sports Council. Ofsted rated the school "Bad" in 2023, paying special needs attention to the above average results in Religious Studies, Geography, Drama and Modern Foreign Languages at GCSE level. The school also has Ofsted "Average" ratings in every category.[2]

Previously a community school administered by Shropshire Council, in January 2019 Meole Brace School converted to academy status. The school is now sponsored by the Central Shropshire Academy Trust.

As Meole Brace School does not have a sixth form, students transfer to Shrewsbury Sixth Form College, Shrewsbury College or a private school. Still, Meole Brace - sometimes abbreviated to MBF - is the largest secondary school within Shrewsbury.
