It might take some getting used to having the front look like a skirt, but still feel like a pair of shorts.

Mrs Booth says she became alarmed after her daughter, Samantha, 12, arrived home close to tears, claiming her PE teacher made her take off her short wrap-around skirt to do cross country .

Oh dear, I went to a private school and the school I went to still makes the girls wear the lovely knickers and skirt combo.Those classic black PE shorts are available in abundance, while navy, red, burgundy, green, purple and lots more colours can be found to satisfy the colours of their school. These adverts enable local businesses to get in front of their target audience – the local community. Mrs June Booth says she will keep her daughter at home during PE lessons if the school continues to force her to run around in gym knickers.

A skort is a garment that may slightly resemble a skirt, but has divided legs that give you the ability to be more active. When I go out to play a game of tennis, I just wear a pair of shorts, but can see why many of the female professional tennis players you see on TV wear a tennis skort. I feel kind of vulnerable and exposed when I wear actual skirts, but skorts give me that extra feeling of security when I have to bend over. I generally gain weight over the winter, yet my swimsuit will still fit in the summer because of the elastic in the waist. Another mum, Caroline Grimshaw, claims her daughter, Kerrie, 11, missed the cross country session - but was asked to run around the playing fields on her own in her gym knickers at the next PE lesson.

Twice, both times in blizzard conditions, we were permitted to wear the tracksuit the school had falsely conned us into purchasing. Young people can be at their most sensitive in their early teenage years and are helped by a sensitive and supportive approach from the adults around them.
