Question about school uniform policies in the UK


Question about school uniform policies in the UK?
Hey guys, Seeing as we are going back to school next week I went out and bought some new jogging bottoms/trackees/tracksuit trousers for P.E lessons. They were the only pair which fit me well, and stayed under the policy of black trousers for P.E. My mum and I realised that they have a long word along the right leg, saying "Mckenzie" in relativley large silver letters, and we are wondering whether this will be allowed. I am unsure as to whether they will be, but they are the only decent pair we could find which fit me. I am also a little nervous about it as Mckenzie isn't really the type of brand I am used to wearing, and I am worried that someone will say something crude or embarrassing. Any views on this? Does anyone with possible knowledge of UK schools know whether they'd fit the guidelines? Thanks for your answers in advance xxx - I did have a booklet but I can't find it - we have to wear polo shirts with the school logo

It's different for every school. My school made me wear a P.E kit that was designed for the school. It's all down to the rules they have. Do you have a rule book or uniform regulation guidelines to look at? If so take a look at that and then see if you think they'd be ok. If not go to the head of P.E on your first day and ask if these trousers will be ok. Make sure you do it before the class otherwise you could get into trouble. If they say no then ask them precisely what they want and any stores they'd recommend you visit. It's best to be in the know. :) :)

It depends entirely on the school - at my school basic PE kit is black football shorts, school football socks, school PE polo top (has logo on), trainers and then optional school trackers (they've got the school logo on, pretty much everyone wears them), school PE sweatshirt and school fleece. I don't think anybody will say anything crude or embarrassing about mckenzie - i wear mckenzie trainers even though it's not really my brand.
