Do you agree with this schools policy?

I read a story about an elementary school in the U.K.According to the story,the school had just installed a brand new,lamninated gym floor for their school.The school didnt want the floor to be scuffed up by the treads on sneakers,and going in socks would be a sliping hazard of rhe floor;therefore,the school required the students to go in bare feet for their p e. class.The story claimed that alot of the parents objected to the policy,but I think that it actually made sense.What is your opinion?

I've never heard of doing that. I do remember we had to change into our gym shoes before we could set foot in the gym, and that made sense.

The reason it doesn't make sense to me to go barefoot is, if one kid has foot fungus, now everybody's got foot fungus.
