The King Alfred School was set up by married couple Hayley and Tom Bowen in 2021 with nine pupils initially on roll.
The school aims to deliver a private education at a reduced cost, with parents asked to pay £6,000 per child per year.
It is currently based at an old Sunday School building in Lake Street but with 26 youngsters on its books as of the start of the year, found it had outgrown the space.
In the hopes of moving to a bigger site, the school appealed for donations and has successfully raised £240,000, including with the help of one Stourbridge couple who gave £150,000 to the cause.
