Some state schools in Great Britain have decided to ban girls from wearing skirts starting from the 2025-2026 academic year. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to the new regulation, trousers and a formal top are designated as the uniform for all students. This change has been sharply criticized by many parents and has led to protests.
The Ministry of Education stated that the main goal of this decision is to reduce the excessive costs for parents. Representatives of the ministry emphasized that simple and equally priced outfits are recommended instead of branded clothing.
Schools have the right to make their own independent decisions, and this is not a mandatory requirement. Wearing trousers is said to be comfortable for girls and does not restrict their freedom of movement, according to the official statement.
This news is said to have been introduced to ensure gender equality. It is intended to reduce differences among students and increase equality by eliminating skirts.
However, many parents consider this decision to be incorrect and express the opinion that school uniforms should not interfere with girls' personal choices. Currently, some schools have refused to implement the new regulation.
Therefore, various approaches to this issue are expected across Great Britain. This topic is widely discussed among the public.
