When I was at school, which was only a few years ago, the school I was at banned the wearing of shorts in the summer months. There were some really hot summers, and me and my friends felt sweaty and manky in trousers but the school wouldn't relax the dress code.

Are the girls allowed to wear them?

@CereBellum I see no reason why not.

@debbiescianni1 No. I meant were girls allowed to wear shorts, but the guys couldn’t?

@CereBellum I don't think the question was a thing then, as the girls were in skirts, I don't think anyone asked; but I do remember in winter, girls were allowed to wear trousers (in uniform colours)

Both sexes are wearing them. No,this is a public school. We have a parochial one about four blocks to the east, but the girls wear skirts and brown/red plaid.
