Hi Olive

This link has a piece about that particular school and why children went there.

http://www.lostockvillage.co.uk/schools.html

Also this link

http://www.boltonmuseums.org.uk/bolton-archives/archives-indexes/local-authority-records/

shows that the archives have some records for Bolton and County of Lancaster Certified Industrial School 1875-1924. You could contact them and see if they can help.
