English School Uniform: Individual Schools--City Prep School, 1933
Figure 1.--This portraits shows what looks like a beginning class of a prep school. The boys look to be about 8 years old. unfortunately the school is not identified. The school was clearly a very substantial one given the building in the back ground. The boys wear a standard prep school uniform, a tie, blazer, short pants, knee socks, and low-cut shoes. It looks to be taken in the 1930s. The school uniform did not change much, but the teacher's dress is helpful in dating. In this case we do not hare to guess. The group is identified as class III in June 1933. Which means that there were multiple classes for each grade (form levels).

The blazer badge couild also help identify the school, but is not real clear. It looks a bit like a the Edinburg Academy badge. The building is probanly too substantial for a prep school, even a large one. Thas might mean a college or academy which included a secondary section.
