Eldest daughter started secondary school last Wednesday.
This morning, helpfully , she informs me that she was spoken to about her shoes on the way out of school on Friday afternoon as they weren't uniform regulation.
These are the shoes www.clarks.co.uk/p/20355020
The shoe guidelines from their uniform regulations:
Black shoes; no trainers, platform shoes, ?Uggs?, open toe, canvas shoes or sling backs. Heels should be no higher than 2"
She was in a bit of a panic going in this morning as they've had dire warnings about being sent home or taught in isolation if they don't have correct uniform, but there wasn't a lot I could do about it at 8:15am. She should have told me Friday, but even then, as far as I can see, there's nothing actually wrong with them.
Black - check
Not trainers, platform, open toe, canvas, Uggs or slingbacks - check
Heel lower than 2" - check
I'm really not prepared to buy more shoes. If school want to be really particular about shoes, they should be clearer when they send out the uniform regulations.
