We had a lovely uniform at Lady Edridge Cream shirt and purple/blue /yellow striped tie Navy blazer with a gorgeous crest depicting a crocus in purple and lilac Navy velour hat with yellow ribbon band and badge (same as crest) Navy skirt. Summer was a lilac gingham checked dress - not too fashionable but quite nice! We had to take our hats off when passing the local seconary modern other wise we would have been beaten up! Think that school uniforms are a really good idea as they give a sense of pride and identity! Allie |

Grey pleated skirt - could be box or knife pleats pale blue shirt pale/navy/black/white striped tie grey jumper grey coat blue beret grey knickers grey/white socks blue gym shorts blue netball skirt grey hockey culottes etc etc Skirt had to be no shorter than 3 inches above the knee when kneeling. Summer dress was made of blue/white/black thin striped material, it had to have sleeves and a high neck. But in the 6th form we could wear our own clothes - but no trousers, miniskirts or sleeveless tops. nell |

Black A-line skirt (wasn't allowed to wear trousers), White blouse with school tie, Black V-neck jumper, Black blazer, shoes and tights - nylon. Had to wear the tights even in Summer. Flipping horrible when it was hot and you had to walk 2 1/2 miles to get to school or home. Joy |

I've got to wear school uniform but don't like it because I'm only at school voluntarily. |
