On 22 October 1952, Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester, as Patroness of the Girls’ Public Day School Trust, opened the new Wavertree Road building. Much of the old building had been bombed during the war
The further expansion of the school led to the GPDST’s purchase in 1993 of a new site (for the Senior School) at Abbotswood Road, the former buildings of the Battersea Grammar School, purchased from London South Bank University.
