Looking for an grid plugin

I don’t understand the page you’re linking to. Can you explain what you want to achieve?

Ah, I see. For this you can simply use Pages in WP. Make a Page template called e.g. schoolgrid.php in your templates folder with this code:

<?php
/* Template Name: Schools Grid */
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content">
<?php
if($post->post_parent):
$thispage = get_post($post->ID);
$pagelist = get_pages('sort_column=post_title&sort_order=asc&child_of='.$post->post_parent);
$pages = array();
foreach ($pagelist as $page) {
   $pages[] += $page->ID;
}

$current = array_search($post->ID, $pages);
$prevID = $pages[$current-1];
$nextID = $pages[$current+1];
?>

<div class="navigation">
<?php if (!empty($prevID)) { ?>
<div class="alignleft">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($prevID); ?>"
  title="<?php echo get_the_title($prevID); ?>">Previous</a>
</div>
<?php }
if (!empty($nextID)) { ?>
<div class="alignright">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($nextID); ?>"
 title="<?php echo get_the_title($nextID); ?>">Next</a>
</div>
<?php
} 

	setup_postdata($thispage);
	echo '<h2>'.get_the_title().'</h2>';
	the_content();
else:
	$schoolgrid = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'sort_order=post_title');
	if($schoolgrid){
		echo '<ul>';
		foreach($schoolgrid as $school):
			echo '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($school->ID).'">'.$school->post_title.'</a></li>';
		endforeach;
		echo '</ul>';
	}
endif;
?>
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Modify the template to fit your needs.

Make a Page called e.g. «Schools» and employ the template on it (no need to enter content, as it will automatically make a list of its sub-pages). Make a sub-page for each school, where «Schools» is the parent, and make sure you employ the template on these, too. This should work. On the Page «Schools» you get an unordered list sorted alphabetically, with links to each school. Each school-page will have next/previous links on top.

I see the next – previous links on your page, they work fine as far as I can see.

I guess the the listing will default to the number of posts set in Settings > Reading. You can override this by changing:

$schoolgrid = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'sort_order=post_title');

to

$schoolgrid = get_pages('child_of='.$post->ID.'sort_order=post_title&number=999');

It will then show 999 pages.
