South Lambeth Road a factor in longevity?

According to the Vancouverite the man who was until recently the world's oldest man (verifiably anyway) Henry Allingham went to school in "London County Council School in South Lambeth Road".

I suppose this may or may not be Wyvil Primary School which was built by the London School Board and opened on January 8, 1877. The architect was E. R. Robson. The contractors were Hill, Higgs, and Hill of South Lambeth Road, and their tender for a school for 828 children was for £7,782. (source)

Update (01 Aug 09): Stockwell News has done more research and found that Henry Allingham lived at 21 Heyford Avenue which would have been very handy for the school.
