Boys At Exeter Academy Wear Skirts In Uniform Protest

Why on earth shouldn't these boys school allow them to wear shorts in this very hot weather.
When I was younger, most boys of this age still wore shorts, so why is the Head teacher, being so ruddy obdurate ?

The other day it was a school who would not allow it's pupils to remove their blazers.

/// I am not sure I had a pair of longs much before I was 12. All the family photos of myself and my brothers showed a complete lack of longs ///
That was because you were a scruffy urchin and like all scruffy urchins your socks were most likely rolled down in an untidy heap over the top of your shoes, you did have shoes didn't you mikey? :0)

Yet another story where parents think they know best and are installing into their kids they are always right.
Rules are rules, its a couple of days in this country so they need to just get on with. I doubt very much the teachers were wearing shorts, probably why they are not in the photo anywhere.
And on the subject of shorts I wonder how many of these boys would want to wear a 'uniform' pair, they are probably thinking more of football shorts which is not acceptable.
I had to wear my blazer and full uniform all the time as it was a private school, and I was at school in 1976 which has similar temperatures.
Had a pair of shoes with a compass in them too, I'd forgotten them Mickey.

I can't see what is wrong with a "uniform" version of shorts ?
We used to wear grey "school shorts" that weren't the same as we wore for rugger or football. We also had a pair of "playing" shorts, so as not to ruin our good shorts for school.
Its a very simple thing that these boys are asking for and they get my support.
