The student of the English Women’s School Wirral Grammar School for Girls in Merseiside created a petition aimed at permission to girls come to classes in pants. The corresponding material publishes Metro.
It is reported that the initiative collected more than 2500 signatures.

Even if you won’t wear pants, support for this petition means that those who want to do it!” – Studies in the text of the application.
According to the Wirral School charter, changes in the dress code “are not subject to discussion”, because the form is “a very important part of the identity and image of the school.” It is known that the director of the educational institution Elaine Kogan (Elaine Cogan) was angry, having learned about the petition, and wrote a letter addressed to parents of students. She called the actions of the student shame, because she did not turn to the director directly, and immediately began to take such actions.
“This is a big shame. I talked with this student and her friends, but they think that social activities will make the Board of Governors immediately make a decision. However, everything is not happening. This behavior is unacceptable. If the Board of Governors decides that there is a weighty reason Change policies, its members will consult with parents to learn their opinion before any changes are made. I will be grateful for your support in this matter, “Kogan said.

One of the students said that the school form had nothing to do with academic performance and that it was directed only to the control of the girls. “Destroy the historical stereotypes about girls, and not strengthen them,” he called.
