South Metropolitan School Industrial School was built in 1851-3 "They are for the maintenance, education, and industrial training of the pauper children appertaining to any particular parish or union of parishes, in a mode whereby it is deemed that much moral, physical, and economical advantage will be obtained by bringing the children together in an out of-town locality, and under a special discipline, instead of rearing them within the confined walls of an ordinary workhouse, where the means of suitable education are limited and imperfect, and where also the demoralising influences and associations are very great." part quote from a newspaper of the time (so it must be true) Illustrated London News. Could be they changed the admission standards later, after all greatgreatuncle Arthur had not much chance to develop a life of crime before he became an orphan at 3 years old.
