A female student alleged the school’s uniform policy was discriminatory against females
The school said the allegations were “offensive and baseless”
The tribunal found there wasn’t enough evidence to conclude the student was being treated unfairly because she was female
[The Tribunal] said while female students may feel the cold when in skirts during winter, the evidence submitted did not address whether stockings or tights would resolve that issue, or whether female students had an advantage during summer compared to male students wearing trousers.

If they’re “permitted to year shorts” why not just skip the skirt and let them wear shorts?

I dont fucking get it. If you’re going to force uniforms, just let anyone wear any of the uniform “styles”. Let anyone wear the skirts if they want to, who does it hurt. Let anyone wear the trousers, who does it hurt!
Good on her for trying I reckon. Fucking uniforms are shit, pointlessly gendering them is even shitter.
OTOH it helps children with lesser means have a way to be on the level with other children as far as that goes… Growing up in a place when/where brand names just started popping up on clothing, shoes etc. and you couldn’t afford being a walking advertisement was tough (however, it has shaped my wardrobe as the majority of my clothing has no obnoxious branding)
Gendered uniforms are still shit, but there is a place for uniforms if done properly.
Mate, we all knew who the less well off children were growing up. You don’t need clothes for that.

I tend to think that for every kid that does better with uniforms, there is a kid that does worse.
Girls can’t wear pants… is this the 1950’s? Absolutely awful
