summer uniform

Ours swap (boys and girls) to polo shirts (from formal shirts and ties). Everything else stays the same, except, I think they don't have to have a jumper in school/ask to take it off.

Never understood having to ask to take your jumper off. Primary DCs are allowed to decide if they are too hot, WTF aren't secondary pupils.

It's a rule that would have lasted 20sec. at my old school, we'd have give our teacher our best "your joking? look" and carried on.

I've just bought some short sleeved shirts for DS at his request. They are allowed to take blazers of in the classroom, but not ties. I think I might bring this up with the school. I don't want DS sitting in exams wearing a tie if he's uncomfortable.

Other than that, there is no summer uniform for girls or boys at high school, at primary girls have gingham dresses. I think I might struggle to get my 8yo to wear one this summer, as she doesn't do dresses.

Permission to take jumpers off? DS sees no need to wear a jumper, unless it's -4'C.

Does your state secondary really have a dress for summer uniform? I've never seen this past primary school. Ours are told when they can leave their blazers off (summer term only).

Ours don't have a summer uniform, ties are compulsory for everyone including girls and they have to ask permission to take their nasty jumpers off

At DS's school they await the Head's permission to remove blazers (and possibly ties?). DS did ask for short sleeved shirts but I need to check if they are allowed.

forgot to put the senior school for ds1, the uniform there was awful, acrylic jumper all year round and no tie, in the summer they could wear a pullover (sleeveless jumper) with a short sleeve shirt/blouse but of course no on wears them so they all sweat it out in long sleeved jumper and shirt. Can't be very nice for the pupils or staff, sweaty smelly teenagers in manmade fibres.

the dc are no longer at state school. Although ds2 does attend state grammar, the only provision for summer is that short sleeves can be worn under the blazer.

At the old primary school, boys could wear shorts and polo shirts in the summer term and girls could wear gingham dresses with ankle socks.

Dd's current school, they have green striped dresses for summer, in the senior part of the school they can wear green striped short sleeved blouses.

At dds comprehensive school in Summer they don't have to wear a blazer or tie. Girls (and boys) can wear short-sleeved shirts, but everything else is the same

I only have boys. But I think they are allowed to take their blazers off, and wear short sleeve shirts.
