DS moving up to high school next year. Received details of the school’s uniform policy and word from parents with older kids is that it is strictly enforced.
Uniform is trousers or skirts, shirt with collar buttoned to top and tie visible at all times, blazer worn at all times outside class.
My DS lives in shorts to school. He hates wearing trousers-finds them too hot all year round!
AIBU to think that it seems unfair that girls can wear skirts and trousers but realistically most boys will be restricted to trousers? Or am I missing an obvious reason why skirts are acceptable and shorts aren’t?
My DS has sensory issues with clothing and noises (but no ASD diagnosis as no other symptoms) and is already hating the no shorts, the button to neck requirement of the shirt and the tie!
School say this is policy and children not in uniform will be sent home to change or given change from clothes school have as spare.
To be clear-this is a state school.
