(THE COLLEGE FIX) — A school in the United Kingdom is facing protests after it banned skirts and made wearing pants a dress code requirement.
The rationale? Officials were weary of checking proper skirt length … and the need to accommodate transgender students.
According to the BBC, the Priory School in Lewes, East Sussex is now dealing with demonstrations as some students want skirts allowed, while others say the dress code results in a waste of money and material.
