Publicity stunt no doubt, but it made the kids' day, so who cares.

Curious: do you think is "English" accent is any good?

(On the flip side, Bob Hoskins does a perfect working class American accent, IMHO)

What a lovely gesture. Even if it's just a publicity stunt, it's in good taste and well done (compared to other such stunts that 'celebrities' have engaged in over the years), but I don't think it was due to the fact that the school only found out ten minutes in advance and the worlds media wasn't alerted.
Furthermore:

He made a secret visit to Great Ormond Street Hospital in January 2008 to donate £1million to say thank you for saving his daughter's life, just months after making a clandestine visit to the wards to tell bedtime stories to sick children on the wards dressed as Captain Sparrow.

So, again, what a lovely chap. I hope I'll bump into him sometime, I know the rumour is he's looking at a place around near Bury St Edmunds, so who knows.

Which sort of English accent?

Bit hard to keep it in the dark about the Old Naval College though.

Apparently though when they're not filming you can walk through the set area so I imagine we'll get some good pics on the net soon.
I doubt they'd need to do too much though because the Old Naval College dates to the era they're using, so it's just a case of removing modern amenities, and trying desperately to film without the noise of aircraft going overhead drowning everything out (good luck with that guys ).
