Simply outrageous. A perfect example that we are now living under the tyranny of the minority!!
Would we expect all pupils to wear a turban because a Sikh boy goes to a school in order to make him feel included?
If everyone who read this gave us just £1 – or even better, £1 monthly – we could change the world. Click here to make a difference. Thanks.
Justice for Men & Boys 
I favour gender equality and thereby pre-puberty gender neutrality in dress. As one mother stated in TV, many adults of different genders wear the same uniforms. The turban issue is a red herring covered by different laws.

Gender equality and gender neutrality are separate issues.
Another mother and her daughter stated in the article that they weren’t happy about being gender neutral and the girl said she was proud of her gender.
Well done for taking her choice and rights away.

We just have to be grateful the gender neutral uniform is trousers.

Well that could be the next flash point.

Well on this as its the male uniform that is in fact the “gender neutral” one then I’m for it. In local schools its pretty clear that the enforcement of uniform is far more stringent on the boys than girls. and in sixth forms the “business dress” means suits and ties for the boys and more or less “anything goes” for the girls. I expect this bit of equality will be far more irksome to the girls long taught that they have a “right” to express themselves in whatever way fashion dictates (oops sorry to “reflect their personality”). So like state pension age and insurances its quite good when the implementation of “equality” proves to be less palatable to females. Part of me wonders if the “gender” angle is simply a smokescreen from the school to cover trying to end the hitching up of school skirts to expose as much flesh as can be got away with, as this gets mentioned a few times.

Quite. I’ve just started sixth form, and all the boys are in shirts and ties, but the girls wear all sorts of skinny tops with sections cut out (mostly on the shoulders or on the back showing – can no one make a top for girls nowadays without cutting some part out? ). They also insist upon skinny trousers too, despite what the dress code says. In short the boys are all appropriately dressed in “business wear”, whereas the girls wear outfits worthy getting drunk in. I doubt many teachers would dare say anything to the girls (if a male sixth former was not wearing a tie he would be either given detention or sent home – also why can’t we see the end of ties for men? they’re just an inconvenience in my opinion).
And still we see feminists making a fuss over women being objectified and sexualised – well why don’t they try wearing some bloody decent clothes!
There is good news, though: My Sociology teacher says she is not a feminist! I have yet to quiz her on why this is, but it’s good to know that sociology teachers who are usually left wing PC LGBTAAIWXYZ (is that the right amount of letters after LGBT? they acronym seems to be growing constantly…) twits can in fact have some common sense. I had a lot of respect for this teacher anyway, but that she is not a feminist is great!
And finally – REES-MOGG FOR PM!

Yes my wife works in a school in a non teaching role and is constantly cross about the double standards applied to the young men in their “business attire” and girls in “night club” outfits in sixth form. It may seem a trivial point but it is indicative of the larger issue of double standards with female “self expression” being lauded but males remaining invisible clones almost.
As an old codger this inequality appears actually to have grown as in my youth both boys and young men and girls and young women were expected to adhere to dress codes that excluded any “distracting” variations (this was the 70s when boys widely experimented with eye liner, long or elaborate hair styles and medallion and big bangle bracelets). Both sexes got short shrift if they broke the dress code.

I guess the proportion of teachers who are female is somewhat higher than in the 1970s – might this explain the double standard that has developed? In TV documentaries set in comp school classrooms it’s evident both female and male teachers tend to focus much more on the girls than the boys.

How do we increase diversity? By handing everyone the exact same uniform. Welcome to upside down land.

Only a teacher could argue that forcing girls to look like boys is the only way to enable spoiled or mentally ill children, whose parents should know better than to indulge them in their deranged adolescent fantasies, to feel ‘included’.

It is not necessary to force girls to wear trousers or boys to wear skirts to have gender neutral and fair dress codes or uniforms. All it needs is for boys and girls to both have an equal choice of trousers, skirts or smart shorts and for everything else (ties, hair rules etc) to be the same for both sexes. Same in the workplace. So easy to do, I don’t understand why it is so difficult to achieve. http://www.sexistdresscodes.com
