Another uniform question

First child off to secondary in sept. Uniform policy on website requires trousers to be black. Also banned are the usual leggings, joggers etc and jeans.

My question is about chinos which are also banned but my child doesn't like the scratchy nature of polyester school trousers. I found some in H&M

You need to ask your school.
Some schools will be extremely hot on any variation from the norm.
Others will be fine with anything that is black and trouserlike.

Sorry the thing posted before I finished

The H&M ones are marketed as tailored trousers.

My question is - when is a chino not a chino, and how much does it matter anyway?

I want my child to be comfortable but also not be constantly bollocked for uniform rule flouting.
