Product Information

The pleated skirt does work for me. The pinstripe blouse, however, absolutely does not and is so offensive to my eyes. Pair that with a pinstripe blazer? You are serving pinstripe squared and I am furious. A new school rule about the length of skirts was introduced two years ago, stating shorter branded skirts had to be worn. We thank the school for its willingness to work towards a fair and positive outcome,” Hamud said. “This has been a difficult period and we are relieved to now have the matter concluded. We are grateful for the support we have received from the wider community.”

Siham’s older sisters, Sumayyah, 19, and Ilham, 17, both wore longer skirts to school without issue.Trousers are safer for girls, healthier and more comfortable'' her mother Margaret insisted. ``The whole idea of skirts for girls is sexist. It's also an equality issue.''

In a statement released by the family lawyers, Mishcon de Reya, Hamud said he was pleased that the school had listened to the family’s concerns and concluded that they were justified in raising the issue.All Siham wants to do is to wear a skirt which is a few centimetres longer than her classmates, and I don’t know why the school has such a problem with this. She is sent home to change into a shorter skirt then return to school later that day – but she isn’t going to change her beliefs in an hour.
