Good for them, i'd do the same if I thought about it. To people who complain about it, they are teenage boys with hormones etc, they will be sweating and it is not pleasant.
its double standards how girls can wear skirts but boys can't wear shorts.

Whatever you had or didn't have, did or didn't do is not a benchmark for others, individuals...that's what employers want. Realists, thinkers, doers, creatives, solvers. In Leeds today were many workers, ranging from postal to city types...all wearing shorts, no responsible employer would expect employees to work in conditions such as we have seen. Wearing shorts on a hot day is not the first step on a slippery slope to non conformism or civil disobedience... don't worry.

Good on them for making a point, standing up for rights and wanting change. There was no way to do this without breaking rules.

Frigginell we'd have got battered for wearing a skirt at my school.However the school should have uniform shorts in these days of health and safety madness to avoid **** like this.
Although this was just some kids trying to be smart.Trousers(or black jeans as i used to wear) never hindered my progress in school.I never thought I couldn't concentrate because my legs were too hot. |

Not every rule is 'right' just because it exists as rule. If that was the case there'd be no such thing as protesting, nothing would ever change, and women/gays/black people would have no rights. (I'm not equating a lack of shorts to those issues obviously... just highlighting my point! ![]() I think it's great what they did, they saw a problem with something and they took a bold step towards trying to fix it... good on them ![]() And I think the argument of "if they were adults they wouldn't be allowed to just do whatever they want" doesn't hold considering there are plenty of adults who do protest and seek change for things that are important to them, and it's people like that who are responsible for most of the major shifts in society that we benefit from today.

Uniforms do jack **** for discipline, they don't affect anything except for learning if a student is too uncomfortable in them when it's hot to focus. Learning is the top priority when it comes to schools, if these foolish heads allow uniform regulations to get in the way of education then they have failed at their jobs. School Uniforms are a most pointless waste of materials, money and time. |

Why do school uniforms exist, out of curiosity? Also why are pupils not allowed shaved heads, dyed hair (even natural colours) and such?
I am not trying to start an argument, I an genuinely curious and always have been :S |

I was grateful for uniform at my school. I went to grammar school and as I was on a free scholarship amongst pretty damn wealthy families every day would have been a nightmare in the clothes stakes. Twice a year non uniform day was stressful enough. Uniform stops any petty **** about who has the best clothes etc.
