10: Approved School
In 1876, when St. Vincent's in Dartford. Kent. was opened, boys slept one hundred to a dormitory. Today the new dormitories sleep ten. The bleak ' industrial school ' as it was first called has given way to something more like a small private boarding school. It is run, as are a number of other approved schools, by the Roman Catholics.
