School Uniform: Scotland--Jumpers



Figure 1.--Scottish private schools often had uniforms with colored kneesocks, unlike English schools which usually had grey knee socks as part of the school uniform.

Scotland is located north of England. It can be quite chilly in Scotland even during summer months. Thus Scottishboys often wear their jumpers or sweaters. Dome schools had white sweaters. They were often worn for games, but at least one school worr them as their principal school jumper. The most common jumpers are grey sweaters. A few schools have colored sweaters, but most have grey sweaters. The grey sweaters often had trim.
