Which effect Mr top poster? The olde schoole tie effect? 

Absolutely. I do not find Kendriya Vidyalaya graduates meeting each other after 
decades saying "Yo ho ho old chap! You had hair on that shining pate of yours 
when we last said toodle-oo"

British style Public schools, like army regiments, created a sense of loyalty 
to the school "colours". The "uppah" class English and "classics" were part of 
the "mantras" essential in creating the caste.
