The money, which was approved by Warwickshire County Council this month, will lead to the school increasing its capacity by around 350 pupils, enabling it to become a two-form entry school.
1,750 pupils currently attend Stratford School, but once additional teaching spaces are built, this will rise to well over 2,000.
Although Warwickshire County Council is currently in the process of buying an area of land in the Stratford College car park for use by Stratford School, it has emerged that because of utilities running underground, building will not be possible to build on this site, which will instead be used for recreational space and parking.
