Petition Action

Allow students to wear non-school uniform once a week if not all week

Petition Details

Stop schools from forcing children to wear school uniform.

Additional Information

Usually, the school uniforms can be expensive so some students might not be able to afford it and they're also quite uncomfortable. Also, schools give detentions for incorrect school uniform which can be harsh (for example, I've seen someone get an hour long detention just for their skirt being 1 or 2 centimetres above the knee).

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The Government does not mandate that schools have uniforms. It is for the governing board of a school to decide whether there should be a school uniform policy and, if so, what that should be.
