Re: School bans pupil for hairstyle
Personally, I think that all school govenors are little hitlers when it comes to deciding uniform policy. When I was in sixth form, the govenors decided that they wanted to change the dress code because they said that they had had reports that sixthformers we looking scruffy and letting the image of the school down (although no examples of when / where were ever provided).

They arrange a meeting with the sixth form council to discuss it and then didin't turn up! 2 days later they issuesd a new dress code which stoped the boys from wearing shorts (we'd only been allowed tailor'd shorts in any case) and a number of other restrictions...

When the complaints were made they just refused to listen to any argument...

The problem here is that the rule they've made is vauge at best so the Head is trying to interprit this as best as possible (not very well in fact) its now got to the point that ego's are on the line.
