Personally, I'd rather have the smarter, "old" uniform because that's what my school uniform has been my entire life :tongue:
I'd prefer the 'old' uniform because it seems smarter. My secondary school did the opposite change when I was there, from polos etc to shirts and I quite liked it. Most other people didn't of course.

Felt better wearing it. My school had a bad reputation, the old uniform was around for many years so it was nice to be associated with a newer look I guess.

I wear mine on weekends for comfort
Old thread!

My opinion on uniform is it must not come from only one supplier.
Schools should in force rules on pupils wearing uniform
