Re: New Uniform for Byrchall

The sports shop in Ashton stock the new uniform and it is cheaper I hear than other places. Also they have a saving scheme for anyone who can't pay the money out all at once.

I still don't like it though. The brown uniform was very smart, there was no need to change it.

Re: New Uniform for Byrchall

I only recently noticed the uniform change when visiting my Mum in Ashton. I thought Ashton had a new school until I noticed the blazer badge.I am a former pupil and Head Girl of Ashton Grammar School.I am appalled at the change in uniform colour. The brown has always looked smart. The new colours look very cheap and nasty.Maybe the Head and Governors think that a change of colour changes a school's reputation and makes the pupils work harder?? I very much doubt that.
