To not get schools issue with dyed hair?

[fitforflighting]

I suspect I may get flamed for this but I genuinely do not get it.
They have a rule against earrings including sleepers. That I get especially with younger children or in sports were children can end up getting them at worst ripped out.

I can kind of even get extreme haircuts with big shaved stars or strange styles that look unprofessional and might not be allowed by adults in a professional work place.

But this week and last term several of senior age children who had dyed hair brown/red/dark purple etc were sent home from school to re dye or put in isolation by teachers with errr brown/red/purple dyed hair! One of the children's teacher has bright purple hair. It does not make her any less of a English teacher or lesson her professionalism in school I don't reckon so what is the problem for teens?

Oh and river the difference is that your kids have a parent that cares about them and their education - not every parent does.

But I could give you a load of 'what if's' to prove the point the other way - if DD spills her breakfast down her last clean skirt and tights - stick her in some leggings, or a frock. Don't waste money on crap school shoes that don't last - they can wear anything. If she has a growth spurt at a time of year when shops are low on uniform and I can't get to one anyway or don't have the cash - no bother, we can make something we have work. Etc etc etc.

But you have leggings and a frock - some kids don't have spare clothes or ones suitable for uniform. Both the shoes and uniform are provided by school and payment options (with no interest) are available (and often not paid back) when pupils are too deprived to afford them. There really is no comparison in your arguments.

Should say school not uniform
