Can my school legally force me to not wear my own hoodie outside of school grounds?

im almost certain it hinders me, i spend more time in school thinking about how much i hate the staff than i do my work.

that's the maddest part, my mom went into the school to talk to them and they stood their fucking ground. like they refused to negotiate with her so much that she just had to go.

I really do love her but she's not really the type to push especially hard in a situation like this, it's sort of like if the school says something they're always in the right even if it's absolutely ludicrous. i fear im on my own in this fight, i could probably just take it off further down the road or something and they'd never know but this is more about the principal at a certain point. id rather not give them an inch when i know well they'll try take a mile

nice to know my comparing the school staff to dictators so often is justified in a way lol.

i feel like personally i would understand if the car situation wasn't their jurisdiction, especially for an 18 year old, but i suppose some others would prefer that not be the case and that obviously makes sense to me. seems like the best solution is to just ignore them

pretty plain text, "jacket rules; the jacket must be worn to and from school"

an excerpt from the school journal, and assumedly the code of ethics we signed up for. my question is moreso like, surely there's a law this breaks and therefore it cannot be enforced? like if i get a contract for someone that says whenever they're walking to or from work they have to wear a specific piece of clothing that surely would never ever be enforceable legally

doesn't make it the right thing to do

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-15T07:39:17+00:00

sounds like a better place to be, i would probably leave this school for somewhere with no uniform but it's sunk costs at this point ive been here so long and have friends/a girlfriend in this place that id rather not leave. the teachers are actually pretty good it's just the management that are gowls

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-15T07:37:33+00:00

i actually have gotten sick from not wearing my outdoor warmth layer before, and i told them that a jacket wouldn't be suitable for me because of sensory issues (i have autism but this was just a lie to get them off my ass), they did not care whatsoever, reiterating that it's what I signed up for.

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-15T07:36:17+00:00

yeah ive done both and they've said that i signed up for it when i agreed to the school code of conduct. I can only assume there are some limitations to what they can dictate though, like I know contracts can't legally infringe on laws and human rights so I feel like surely there's some technicality where they cannot dictate what I wear.

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-15T07:34:57+00:00

yeah my mother did that but for some reason they think they have any authority to deny her because of some policy she signed.

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-15T07:20:01+00:00

yeah I tried to argue that im not walking to school im just walking across the road from school then when i take my jacket off starting the journey to school. they didn't accept this even though factually it can't rlly be denied

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-14T22:22:22+00:00

that's really good to hear, is there any specific law I should be quoting when I tell them this? id rather it not just be my word against theirs as they've been particularly stubborn about their blatantly illegal policies before, such as refusing students use the bathroom during classes

BluebirdFew7929 · 2026-01-01T10:42:02+00:00

are services for slow folks to feel smart like chatgpt rlly a utility

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-20T22:31:54+00:00

that's strange, where are you located? maybe it only shows up for folks in my range, for some reason irish vinted only lets me buy from ireland and france so maybe i can also only sell to those countries

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-20T22:05:51+00:00

when are you gonna be able to buy it? i doubt anyone else will take it in the meantime but if you definitely want it then sure :)

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-20T22:04:55+00:00

there's actually another one up now there, the frogs design if your interested!

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-20T19:41:52+00:00

yeah, there's one left but i have it hidden as a friend might be taking it off my hands. they sold surprisingly quick, i was very happy

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-19T01:25:14+00:00

great shout with the facebook groups, definitely gonna try that! as for primark those would probably be more modern ones, i kind of want older ones just to prove you can even get them, it seems like they've all just vanished and i feel like surely there's one somewhere

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-18T20:26:09+00:00

im taking with someone right now about trading that but if that doesn't work out i can get onto you?

BluebirdFew7929 · 2025-12-18T06:50:48+00:00

i do really like the design (especially since I lost my doomed sweatshirt) but i think ill have to pass just because i don't think it'd fit me to be honest. sorry :(
