A mum claims her daughters have been out of school for three days due to their shoes breaking 'dress code rules'.
Eight weeks ago Birkenhead Park School on Wirral changed its uniform policy stopping students from wearing trainers, instead opting for smarter shoes. The change has sparked outrage among some parents who claim the school has been turning away their children at the gates for breaking the school's dress code, a claim the school denies.
One parent who spoke to the ECHO said her daughters had not attended school for three days as they wear black trainers and she believes the new policy has only been implemented to rid the school of what it considers "bad and naughty kids."
