Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: 'school' (an educational institution) combined with 'of medicine' specifies the field of study, so it denotes an institution for medical education. The noun + of + noun pattern is a common, cross-linguistic way to mark specialization, so a B1 learner who knows the parts will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
School of medicine comes from the simple idea of school as a place to learn and medicine as the care of the sick. So it literally means the place where people learn 'to become doctors', which is why today it means 'a place for medical training'.
