| From approved school he graduated through detention centre to borstal, finally winding up in prison. |
| When someone informed on him he was charged with handling stolen goods and sentenced to one year in borstal. |
| He was involved in crime from an early age, being sent to approved schools and borstal before ending up prison. |

| The governor of a borstal institution tries to reform a group of juvenile delinquents through sympathy rather than punishment. |
| He would have remained a borstal boy with a grudge against society who would probably have ended up in prison for a single sadistic killing. |
