OK, this is a particularly strong piece of evidence which NOBODY can ignore. I went to a school with a strict uniform policy and left with but one 'O' level. Went to an FE college - no uniform, 7 O levels. Went to Poly - no uniform, within a whisker of a First. Proven beyond all doubt that uniforms inhibit rather than promote academic achievement. So, you might as well just close the thread now Chris
