Hiya everyone, the pic top left looks like the gable end of the toffee shop, you could drive down between the school and the shop to some garages where there used to be a couple of air raid shelters adjoining the school yard, I remember a lad called Alan Jackson who went into the shop and asked how much their penny lollies were!

It MUST be part of the school, because the condition of the roof on that building far left is in the same condition as the roofs visible on the main part of the school (i.e. slates taken off).
I used to go to this building when it was a Sunday school for Christ Church, but as a kid you dont notice just how big a building is.
