A female student alleged the school’s uniform policy was discriminatory against females

The school said the allegations were “offensive and baseless”

The tribunal found there wasn’t enough evidence to conclude the student was being treated unfairly because she was female

      OTOH it helps children with lesser means have a way to be on the level with other children as far as that goes… Growing up in a place when/where brand names just started popping up on clothing, shoes etc. and you couldn’t afford being a walking advertisement was tough (however, it has shaped my wardrobe as the majority of my clothing has no obnoxious branding)

      Gendered uniforms are still shit, but there is a place for uniforms if done properly.
