I would replace this:
>         <Section class="A">

to  <Section class="{@class}">

>           <xsl:apply-templates select="key('class', @class)"/>

Result:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<school>
  <Section class="A">
    <student>L</student>
    <student>O</student>
    <student>S</student>
  </Section>
  <Section class="B">
    <student>M</student>
    <student>Q</student>
  </Section>
  <Section class="C">
    <student>P</student>
    <student>R</student>
  </Section>
</school>

Cheers,
