English School Types: Grammar School Blazers


Figure 1.--This id form 1 or the new boys at an English grammar school in 1961. The boys appear to have plain black blazers.

Grammar schools normally required boys to wear a standard blazer. The blazers I have seen appear to be black or dark blue, normally with the school crest. Grammar schools did bot generally have bright colored blazers, although some did. I do not know of a grammar school that did not have a formal school uniform with a blazer or grey suit.
