Our kids headteacher just sent out an email saying that they’re changing the school uniform policy. The head seem to have a boner for this as she’s been talking about it in emails for about a year, she actually sent out a potential new uniform about six months ago and it got absolutely panned. She’s finally just sent out a new policy saying that all the polo shorts will be changing from white to blue, they’ve got to have a uniform for when the kids go out to do messy play rather than letting them just wear old clothes, loads of little rules like how leggings aren’t allowed under skirts but tights are, and every kid now basically needs to have a ponytail and they’re only allowed blue hair bobbles to hold it in place.

So basically now all the parents have to go buy new clothes, including for messy play when they get their clothes trashed, and apparently this is supposed to help the kids somehow. There’s already a uniform but the head’s decided it’s not strict enough, during a cost of living crisis. I have no problem affording the new clothes but I know a lot of parents are struggling and the school has bigger problems, not to mention my kid likes picking out different colours of head bobbles, wearing leggings under skirts, etc.

I’m going to complain, anyone got any suggestions?
