TO the lady angry over her daughter’s school “shoes” (November1).
Parents should be backing the school, uniform worn in so many schools these days is of such a poor standard, with skirts worn too short, leggings or skinny jeans worn instead of trousers. 
I think it is great the school is cracking down and would be proud to send my daughter there. 
I put shoes in inverted commas, as shoes they are not, they are a pair of trainers! If she cannot see they are trainers and not shoes, maybe she should go back to school herself!
