Free Blazers
I have heard a rumour that the school which my daughter will be attending from September, is going to issue free blazers to the new intake. This is apparently related to the fact that the school is going for academy status from September 2007.
I don't know whether it's true or how it's going to work, but an interesting idea, huh? The current pupils look a right motley selection at the moment.

Be warned! There's no such thing as a free blazer.
Also, how could a free blazer make a motley selection look any smarter? If they have no self-respect now, a free blazer isn't going to make much difference.
Perhaps it comes with a brainwash mechanism built in: "Academies are the way forward - abolish grammar schools". (repeat until you believe it).
