A furious mum has blasted her son's school after he was banned from wearing his Clarks shoes.
Strict dress code rules mean Nike Air Forces and Hush Puppies are among the popular footwear brands pupils are not allowed to wear at the school. But according to one mum, her son was put in isolation for wearing his Clarks shoes, which happen to look similar to the Nike pair.
The 36-year-old, from Werrington, said kids should not be "treated like caged animals" as she spoke out against the headteacher at Moorside High School in Staffordshire.
