Personally I think fleeces or pullovers in a standard colour with a simple logo or badge would make sense. Trousers or skirts should be hard wearing but smart, boy’s trousers taking a crease. Ties not sure about these. Possibly for special occasions. I had to wear a grey flannel suit (actually worsted) for school from 13 to 18, blazers were permitted in the KC Wolf Kansas City Chiefs 3X Super Bowl LVII Champions shirt Also,I will get this summer term. For the overwhelming majority of schools that involves a uniform. At least from reception to year 11 (5th form as was). Some schools have no policy for the sixth form, others specify a lounge suit or female equivalent. As far as I know, there are no secondary modern schools left anywhere in the U.K. – not as such. However, in the few parts of the country where there are still selective grammar schools, you get comprehensive schools which cover pretty much the full ability range; they just have fewer very able children than you would expect to find in a comprehensive school that didn’t have a nearby grammar school creaming off some of the brightest children. Churchdown School in Gloucester is a good example; it covers all abilities, and takes both boys and girls, and quite a few bright children do choose to go to it, rather than apply to either of the very academic single-sex schools in the city.
