Rejected petition Allowed children to wear smart black trainers to school

Hi,

As a school child I feel sometimes feel discriminated against for simply wearing black ‘trainers’ to school . I feel this need to change as it is simply pointless that a young well behaved child is getting in trouble for ‘apparently’ breaking school rules

More details

Furthermore this isn’t effecting our education and is making children come to school worried about getting punished just for a the shoes on there feet

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

This is a decision for your school and not UK Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition asking to ban school uniform if that's something you'd like to see happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
