I Had Or Have To Wear A School Uniform

Well, the teachers now haven’t changed. And maybe we haven’t changed that much either. We still run in the corridors! @Oldmanjimbo

@Blodyn Being seen running in the corridor usually resulted in a slippering when I was at school.

These delightful girls in mini gymslips are from Wangaratta HS in Australia, where corporal punishment was still being used per school records. The mind boggles!

@Oldmanjimbo the reason i dont wear short skirts like that is cause i suck at sitting ladylike lol

@BlackBlossom sitting in a ladylike manner is an important skill for girls to learn

There were too many comments flying back and fore! I was replying to your comment about seeing thighs. We don’t do that now because our skirts are quite long but most kids here have thighs that are ok. Because I swim, mine are seen almost day. It isn’t at all a problem. But some girls are embarrassed about their thighs. So I am pleased that the Department for Education has persuaded the supermarkets to make our skirts knee length. @Oldmanjimbo

Actually you can’t buy skirts that short now. The schools have been collaborating with the supermarkets. Skirts are knee length. @Mrpauldavies

I agree. Some schools have said all pupils must wear trousers. I cannot because my religion won’t allow it. And skirts are not short now. They are all knee length. @Mrpauldavies

Blazers are very expensive. My Mam had to wear one. £125. My school badge is on my jumper. @Oldmanjimbo

@mad205039 That's a sweeping generalisation 🙄
