Rejected petition Remove uniforms from schools as school uniforms are unfortunately sexualised.
To remove school uniforms from school as they are now being sexualised by all kinds of people which is obviously disgusting as school uniforms are targeted towards children. However put in place dress codes where appropriate as it's still a school.
More details
Im a 15 year old female Student in Year 11 and have unfortunately experienced some really uncomfortable cat-calling and harassment as i have walked home from school throughout my years at school and personally think uniforms do more harm than good. I have been shouted at from middle aged men "Nice skirt" as they have drove past and have been whistled at many times by construction workers. Its obviously vile as i am a minor and being massively sexualised because of my uniform.
