The new rule, announced at the Highland Park school, has angered Amanda Craig, whose son Jayden attends the school. "I went: 'You've got to be kidding' and a lady from the Parents & Citizens standing near me said: 'It doesn't look right'," she said.
Principal Regan Gant reportedly rolled up his own sleeves after making the announcement and said: "I don't like this look. It looks scruffy."
The school last year warned against hugging, which parents said was political correctness gone mad. It backed down from the ban days later, after an intense backlash from parents and media scrutiny. Mr Gant did not respond directly but regional education director Glen Hoppner said Education Queensland supported the right of principals to enforce a dress code.

Does not compute. I kind of get school uniforms, but this kind of nit-picky micromanagment is just ridiculous. They are school children, not army rookies, they shouldn't be expected to shed all individuality and self-governance. That's not why they wear those uniforms. I think.
technically he could say he is not rolling up the sleeves on his ghubby little arms but he is just sliding them up his chunky sausage filled apendages
WTF???
Why the hell school can add rules like that? How the hell rolled sleeves can affect educational process? If I'd was one of those students I'd just skipped the school and passed all the exams by using services like pro-papers.com
