How to Deserialize a xml file's listed items which is present within another listed items

I have an auto generated xml file with the following format.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<School>
<Classes numberOfFields="5">
<Class name="10" dataType="double">
<Section value="A"/>
<Section value="B"/>
<Section value="C"/>
</Class>
<Class dataType="double"/>
<Class dataType="double"/>
<Class dataType="double"/>
<Class dataType="double"/>
</Classes>
</School>
I deserialize using "XmlDeserializer" as follows
School schoolResult = (School)xmlSerializer.Deserialize(stream);
XmlRootElement contains a collection of "Class" under "Classes" tag and further each "Class" would contain Collection of "Section".
And in C#, I have declared like this to deserialize "Classes" into a List of classes.
[XmlArray("Classes")]
[XmlArrayItem("Class", typeof(Class))]
public List<Class> Classes {};
Now to further deserialize Class into List of Sections, I have added the code as below.
[XmlArray("Class")]
[XmlArrayItem(ElementName="Section")]
public List<Section> ClassSections {};
My problem is I couldn't get the List of Sections values properly. Because I have "Class" as a class name in the first part and in second part I have mentioned same "Class" as Array element. So could any one tell how can I properly Deserialize my "School" object using "XmlSerializer" to get all the values properly.
Note: I cannot have a Array root tag like "Sections" under "Class". Because my xml document is auto generated. I cannot specify my own format.
Thanks...

try this :
public class School
{
[XmlAttribute]
public int numberOfFields { get; set; }
[XmlArray("Classes")]
[XmlArrayItem("Class", typeof(Class))]
public List<Class> Classes { get; set; }
}
public class Class
{
[XmlAttribute]
public string name { get; set; }
[XmlAttribute]
public string dataType { get; set; }
[XmlElement("Section")]
public List<Section> ClassSections { get; set; }
}
public class Section
{
[XmlAttribute]
public string value { get; set; }
}
* EDIT #1 **
--------------- Update Structure due to NumberOfFields is not readed ----------------
in my opinion it's not correct structure, but when u said it's an auto generated XML file, i think it simplest way to read it.
public class School
{
[XmlElement("Classes")]
public List<ArrayClass> Classes { get; set; }
}
public class ArrayClass
{
[XmlAttribute]
public int numberOfFields { get; set; }
[XmlElement("Class")]
public List<Class> Class { get; set; }
}
