Girls wear a pleated skirt under the coat; boys wear breeches. The buttons on the coat depict the founder of the school, King Edward VI. Despite the uniform’s old-fashioned look, students are proud to wear it. GARDEN HOUSE Uniform introduced in: 1951 Alumni: Lady Margarita Armstrong-Jones Style: A co-educational day school in Chelsea, considered one of the most prestigious in London, Garden House boys and girls share facilities but are taught separately. Uniforms are in tones of blue, grey and white. Girls wear blue overcoats, grey scarves and blue berets, while boys wear blue blazers and grey ties. OUNDLE Uniform introduced in: Early 1900s Alumni: Richard Dawkins, Sir Peter Scott, Cecil Lewis, Charles Wintour Style: A leading independent co-educational boarding and day school, Oundle is located in Northamptonshire. The uniform for girls includes a navy blazer, white collared shirt and long, fetching pinstriped culottes. The girls say that the longer the culottes are, the more fashionable. HARROW SCHOOL Uniform introduced in: 1615 Alumni: Winston Churchill, Lord Byron, Julian Metcalfe, Terence Rattigan Style: Harrow, an all-boys school in northwest London, is famed for the boater hats. Varnished straw is secured with a dark blue band. Despite having two uniforms, everyday dress for boys is smart, including a white shirt, black silk tie, black shoes and light grey trousers. A photo of two Harrovians in Sunday dress overlooked by three working-class boys made the News Chronicle (now Daily Mail) back in 1937, becoming a popular national symbol for class divide. 18 sEPTEMBEr 2015 THE LADY 49 Fashion_SchoolUniform.indd 49 14/09/2015 16:58 INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS SPECIAL ETON COLLEGE Uniform introduced in: 1784 Alumni: Prince William, David Cameron, Tom Hiddleston, Eddie Redmayne Style: If you didn’t know better, you’d think Etonian boys were off to perform a piano concerto at the Proms. Eton College is located in Berkshire, near Windsor, and was founded in 1440 by King Henry VI. The dapper uniform of the school includes black tailcoat jackets, paired with buttoned waistcoat vests, a white-collared shirt with a white bow tie and pinstriped trousers. It’s an exceptionally interesting outfit, so far worn by 19 British prime ministers during their time at the school. LANCING COLLEGE Uniform introduced in: 1848 Alumni: Sir Michael Darrington, Sir Roy Calne, Tom Sharpe Style: The school is based in the countryside of West Sussex, near the village of Lancing. Nowadays, the thriving school is co-educational. Girls wear knee- length blue tartan skirts, a HILL HOUSE blue jumper and navy-and- Uniform introduced in: 1951 white striped ties.

The pinafore was modelled around the dress of North African tribesmen, known as a djibbah, designed by one of the three sisters who founded the school. CHELTENHAM LADIES’ cOLLEGE Uniform introduced in: The 1950s Alumni: Kristin Scott Thomas, Helen Rosa Wright, Beatrice Harraden, Talulah Riley Style: The Cheltenham Ladies’ College girls mix greens, navy blues, light blues and blacks. Girls say they live in their jumpers ‘every day, no matter what season’, dyed in a dark green to symbolise the college. For generations, even green knickers were an essential part of the uniform. 50 THE LADY 18 SEPTEMBER 2015 Fashion_SchoolUniform.indd 50 14/09/2015 17:02 The GDST difference Composed, con dent, committed and courageous girls - that’s the GDST difference.

Following clarification of the timeframe for which the data is required, the current list of independent schools that have given formal notification to leave the TPS since 1 September 2018 is set out in the annex.
