A perfect location – St Leonards is in the most unique location  More
St Leonards is a pretty magical place. Our pupils are taught to learn effectively, communicate clearly, respect others and participate with purpose.

St Leonards is one of the UK's leading independent schools. From our beautiful campus in the historic university town of St Andrews, we offer an outstanding boarding and day education for boys and girls aged 5-18. St Leonards is the first International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum school in Scotland, and one of just two in the UK, delivering the inspiring and globally-recognised curriculum from Year 1 to Year 13.

An Award-Winning Education. St Leonards was announced as winner of the Boarding Schools' Association (BSA) Boarding Research Award 2022 and 2023 and, most recently, was named the UK's Independent School of the Year for International Student Experience.

Live, Learn and Play in the Home of Golf. St Leonards offers one of the UK's leading school golf programmes, catering from all abilities, from beginners to elite golfers. Delivered in partnership with the St Andrews Links Golf Academy, St Leonards' golfers have access to state-of-the-art training facilities, top-of-the-range golfing technology, and seven Links courses, including the Old Course.
