'A good image' is just socially constructed, subjective nonsense though. Who defines that? When people care more about the 'image' of a school over the education of a child, their priorities need reassessing

Look, I can see the benefits to school uniforms and don't oppose them. But enforcing strict add-ons which are completely inconsequential (like wearing coats, scarves, having certain hair styles, make up etc) and being completely inflexible with the rules regardless of the context is backwards bull****. Sometimes freedom of expression and commonsense comes before 'rules'. Humans are humans, not mindless cogs in a wheel there to obey every order ever created
