Uniform
The old girls school uniform consisted of a brae blue jumper, a white blouse with the school badge, knee-length tartan skirts, and black tights/socks. The newer uniform was issued in Autumn 2010. The jumper is now navy blue, and the blazer was changed. The old school uniform may be worn. The current boys school uniform consists of a school blazer, with the pupils house colour on it. A similar school tie is also to be worn with the house colour on. Black neatly pressed trousers, and black socks. Black shoes must be worn, as trainers are not permitted. No changes are planned to the boys school uniform. Once the early summer heat has passed, the Headmaster of the Boys' school invariably declares "Summer", enabling ties to be removed within school but they must be worn around the neck outside the school grounds.

Famous quotes containing the word uniform:
“He may be a very nice man. But I haven’t got the time to figure that out. All I know is, he’s got a uniform and a gun and I have to relate to him that way. That’s the only way to relate to him because one of us may have to die.”
—James Baldwin (1924–1987)
“We know, Mr. Weller—we, who are men of the world—that a good uniform must work its way with the women, sooner or later.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“Thus for each blunt-faced ignorant one
The great grey rigid uniform combined
Safety with virtue of the sun.
Thus concepts linked like chainmail in the mind.”
—Thom Gunn (b. 1929)
