Great Britain is the birthplace of the school uniform and over the years schoolboys have worn a wide variety of official school dress. These pages illustrate a selection of these uniforms and provide some details of their history.

    I look at these previledged kids and I think of the original film "Lord of the Flies" Check it out. It was the richie rich choir boys with the spiffy uniforms that did most the killing. Think about that if yer a catholic priest. Sorry for my spelling, I'm beat today.

    Actually, if you go to the link, you'll see that the uniform in the picture is the *daily* attire at that school and has been for a LONG time. Some of the other schools reserve their most archaic attire for special occasions, but this school is big on tradition. I'll bet they don't take a lot of whining and bad behaviour from the kids either. Sure it's a bit goofy, but only because it's foreign to us. I think it looks a whole lot better than the falling-down-pants & sidewise hat thugwear permitted in government schools in the US.
