Grammar Schoolboys 1938-9?

What we know about this image :

A bit of mystery surrounds this. The boy third from right on the front row is Robert Bramley who went to the Grammar School. Was the photo taken in Brinkburn grounds or Lauder Street ? The boys appear not to be wearing strict uniform but most do appear to be carrying gas masks over their shoulders.
