It had the kids who would probably be tagged as having attention defecit syndrome or somesuch today. The lads I knew who went there were pretty much under achievers to say the least but they were still part of our "gang".

We were always told if we were naughty we'd go to Claremount School in Wallasey. I remember one kid going there, we were horrified

Claremount is for kids with learning difficulties. I think its a great school, very well run.

It was colloquially known as the "backward" school if I remember rightly.
