A female student alleged the school’s uniform policy was discriminatory against females
The school said the allegations were “offensive and baseless”
The tribunal found there wasn’t enough evidence to conclude the student was being treated unfairly because she was female
[The Tribunal] said while female students may feel the cold when in skirts during winter, the evidence submitted did not address whether stockings or tights would resolve that issue, or whether female students had an advantage during summer compared to male students wearing trousers.

If they’re “permitted to year shorts” why not just skip the skirt and let them wear shorts?

Good on her for trying I reckon. Fucking uniforms are shit, pointlessly gendering them is even shitter.
Get the males wearing skirts and that policy will likely get an update.
The school’s uniform policy stated girls in years seven to 12 needed to wear skirts to occasions including excursions, ceremonies, and class photographs while male students could wear shorts or trousers — their usual uniform.
I don’t think they would be allowed to.
I’m thinking they mean in protest, e.g. https://www.theguardian.com/education/2017/jun/22/teenage-boys-wear-skirts-to-school-protest-no-shorts-uniform-policy
Girls can’t wear pants… is this the 1950’s? Absolutely awful
