  AIBU to think DD2's school is being ridiculous  (41 Posts)
NeverBeenToMe Thu 16-May-13 12:19:38  Dd2 is in year 11. Working
hard for exams etc. and starts study leave after Whit. She is a
fairly quiet, studious girl. This morning she has been pulled
out of an English lesson (exam is on Monday), told her skirt is
too short and she has to wear trousers tomorrow. She has worn
this skirt for WEEKS without any comments from anyone at school.
And suddenly with six days left, they think I am going to buy
her a pair of trousers??  Someone I work with (in education!)
has suggested keeping her off until study leave starts, if I
don't get a satisfactory conclusion from a conversation with the
Head of Year - am quite tempted to do this and just have her
study at home.  She was given a lecture on wearing suitable
attire for work etc - but as far as I am concerned she has
another five years in education - plenty of time to worry about
work attire then!  luxemburgerli Thu 16-May-13 14:28:50  Bizarre
