In the US a superintendent (super) is a caretaker or janitor - I would never have known this without google! In future I am just going to google [word] + “USA meaning”

I twigged Super(too much American TV) but Tests that went with keys was a random guess!
And that left me with the ‘ school of’ group.
Would never have got that!
School of Rock is apparently a film.
