A proposal has been made by the Pupil Forum suggesting a change to the current uniform. The recent change in school hours went out to parental consultation, the process was not completely transparent and This petition is to give a transparent view of parents Carers and the Danestone community. Please sign it, the proposal to move towards a tracksuit type uniform undermines the collective respect of both pupils and the community in which the children live. A uniform is purposeful and respectful and provides a sense of identity, whilst it is recognised that the shirt and tie may have had it's day the ethos a Tracksuits suggests is too casual and does not promote a hardworking, culture promoting integrity and positive behaviour. We beleive the Tracksuits would bring ridicule and an inappropriate message which clashes with the values being fostered by the new curriculum for excellence.

No to tracksuits! School should be a place where they dress for success not for lounging around.

Absolutely not. Uniforms teach kids discipline and pride. Tracksuits will just make them lazy.

Tracksuits are for sports day, not for sitting in a classroom all day. What were they thinking?

Ridiculous idea. Kids will look like they rolled out of bed. Keep the current policy.

School is for learning not the gym. Kids look sloppy enough as it is, keep the uniform smart.
