St Andrews School for Girls moved to Old St Leonard's College buildings in 1882 and adopted their name to become St Leonards School for Girls.

A typical feature of this section of the school is that of the rooms, twenty in number, with the necessary closets, erected most probably in the first half of the 17th century - records show that it was repaired in 1660. It was in 1882 that the conversion of the buildings into the St Leonard's Girl's School took place, this part now forming the house for the headmistress.
