Default To Sir With Love

There is not much info on IMDB, so does anyone here know where the location of the School is in this film?? On screen Sidney walks past street signs Reardon Street and Juniper Street which are both in the Wapping area approx half a mile apart. Is the school still there ?? anybody

The IMDb lists locations of The Isle of Dogs, Poplar and Wapping. But although the streets still exist there has been a huge amount of redevelopment in that area, the building of modern Docklands so I don't reckon much to your chances of still finding it.

Go to the area and ask in a few pubs

That big building, on the west side of Johnson Street, just south of the railway, looks like it could be a school - or be used as a school in a film
