Not I believe Brighton Grammar School, if that is in any way helpful.

British Grammar School?

A google search found a couple around the world, this may be the emblem of one.

Cheers, Tim

I did a search too, and saw several different ones, but none exactly like this. The dove was common in a few along with the Bishops staff and cap.

Thank you everyone for your help. I think some sort of Grammar School is the right direction.

Can't help with identifying badge , one thought was Bishop Gore School but their badge is different.

The makers mark :

H.W.MILLER LTD
BRANSTON ST.
B'HAM.18

was apparently used from 1935–1958 , after that the BRANSTON ST. was no longer used.
