I think the shipping records and the school record are the same person, not unusual for a record to be a year or so out on birth year. Birth registration was quarter commencing October 1888 which could well fit an August birth.

The school record gives his address as 32 Ivydale Road. His previous school was Vickery Place and his education level was I. He left 04/02/1998 with the note "removed to Epping".
