Parents have been left fuming over a secondary school's new uniform policy that they say means girls are being forced to wear 'sexist' and 'unhygienic' attire.
Students at Ashton on Mersey Academy in Trafford have been told that as well as wearing a skirt to school, they must wear 'plain black tights' at all times, reports the Manchester Evening News.
The decision has been blasted by parents of the students, and concerns have been raised that this new policy is 'unhygienic' - especially during the warm weather.
However bosses at the school have said the uniform policy will be relaxed during high temperatures.
