Please give your opinions on this rule ... SCHOOL ISSUE COATS ONLY allowed. Any pupils wearing anything other than these will have them confiscated. It was snowing and got to -3 this morning, but if they want to wear a coat they have to pay for a school one Some parents can't afford them. ALL children refuse to wear them.

RIDICULOUS. kids need to stay warm to learn properly. stop worrying about the brand of the coat and focus on their health

Some of us have already spent enough on uniforms. Cant afford to buy another expensive jacket just for the logo. let them wear their own.

My son came home freezing yesterday. It is -3 outside this is actually dangerous for the kids. Let them wear their own coats.

Seriously? Confiscating warm coats in the middle of winter? That is just cruel.
