The former West Bromwich Grammar School was targeted in a blaze which destroyed part of the roof and caused significant damage to the historic building.
There are now calls for the Homes and Communities Agency, which owns the building, to restore it to its former glory. Fire crews were called to the blaze at 7pm on Thursday, and at its height 55 firefighters were on the site.
Parts of the Victorian building were completely destroyed, while others were untouched, including the blue plaque to the actress Madeleine Carroll who attended the school.
