Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
Against this, these provisions do nothing to help heads with the kind of uniform issues that are creating problems for schools, where they need reinforcement. For example, are schools required to accommodate children wishing to wear the uniform of the other sex? Some schools are sidestepping this with a unisex uniform, but not every girl wants to be pushed into a unisex uniform, which typically ends up as what previously would have been characterised as a boy’s uniform.
