Alas what Beau is referring to isn't much to do with schools (although obviously some school-age people fit into the groups he's talking about). It's people who are old enough to have left school on the whole, in the 16-25 age bracket, who hang around the streets and harrass or beat up passers by.

They give me quite a bit of hassle, I've been egged, and I'm a 32 year old woman ffs. They didn't like my clothes. In this case, it's not just social groupings inside schools that are being referred to, but people who hang out in large groups dressed in a certain way and get their kicks out of frightening the elderly and giving grief to people who are just minding their own business.

Unfortunately this seems to have become a bit of a phenomenon in many towns in Britain recently.
