Teacher in your photo seems to have been wearing a shorter dress/skirt than teacher in other pic. 1 leg is visible next to girl pupil. She was wearing light or flesh-coloured stockings and shoes with straps and high heels.
If the girls normally wore pinnies at school like some younger girls in the other photo they may have taken them off to be photographed?

Thank you maiden stone, My own photo/pic I thought  could be my granddad at school which would maybe date around 1928/9 as he was born 1917 if anyone thought it could be earlier then it could'nt be him but maybe one of his brothers or even sisters might be in it the other picture I posted ( without permission ) of a class circa 1917 from St Anthony's which my grand father could have went as both school where quite close by Govan having a large population at the time I was sent to compare and I could'nt tell (so apologies to Mary Blair or who owns that picture) I realise that the brickwork was different but maybe the all girl picture might have been a annex. Once again thanks for any input and time you have all spent. H

Could the teacher in the 1917 pic be the same person in the later one?
