In my area for the last couple of days there has been some rumblings about a local school where the new Head has enforced a dress code by sending 88 home the first day and 25 the second.

Now just to give some background the school historically has had its problems. It is situated in the largest council estate in Europe and has had three different titles that I know of.
There has been many comments to the article several of which have alluded to the fact that those who support the Head have managed to construct a reasonable argument and those criticising the Head have shown a lack of literacy skills. Wondered if there was some connection there. One of the female pupils involved was called - wait for it .............. Lexus. I kid you not! (Motoring related link ;-) )
My opinion is that there should be more strict enforcement of a dress code as it demonstrates conformity and discipline which should be two of life's basic skills sadly lacking in society as we see it at present.
Views anyone?
