School uniform

I accept not everyone will feel the same with my issue here and I respect that.

Last night after work I popped into my local supermarket. I happened to be walking behind a girl aged around 14 although looked older. She was still in school uniform with shirt tie etc. Her skirt was the black slinky swirly style & was so short it looked more like a tiny skirt attached to bikini bottoms,not the type older women wear. She looked great with model like legs but at the same time I can't believe schools accept this mode of dress in the classroom. There are people who say young girls should feel free to dress as they wish without judgement. I agree if going out for the evening your only young once & nobody has a right to judge.

As far as school uniform is concerned & before I'm being accused of being a pearl clutcher etc I have no issue with saying I definitely do judge. I believe parents & teachers should ban this type of skirt in the classroom.

My DD and her friends all roll them up but they wear really long socks. The PE skort is very short but again with long socks

How do the long socks help?

I agree but, she might not care! We also don’t know that she’s flashing her bum cheeks at teachers, because no one on here has seen her at school. Her skirt might have been rolled up in the supermarket, and rolled down at school.

Her skirt was over the blouse & not rolled up
