Hardwicke Refornatory school, Gloucestershire

[weemaxcat]

I have what I hope is ancestor, a Joseph CHARLESTON, as an inmate in the Hardwicke reformatory school in the 1881 census.
Is there any way of finding when inmates were admitted, how long they were there, and their reason for being there?
Many thanks, weemaxcat

This (http://www2.glos.ac.uk/bgas/tbgas/v113/bg113151.pdf) has some interesting info on the school, but no admissions. You may find more info here.
