BEATTIE, John H. The Churchill Scheme: The Royal Naval Special Entry Scheme 1913-1955. x, 114, [117]p., illus., index. [n.p., author], 2010.

After completing their school education the recruits joined at the then late entry age of 17 to 19. The story is told in great detail as over the years the Special Entries were trained in over 20 different shore establishments and ships, both harbour and sea-going, before they finally went to the RN College Dartmouth in 1939 for the first time. A very detailed account.
