A girl in Essex has been put in isolation from her

classmates for turning up at school with blonde and

red highlights in her hair. So, do you think the

school's action is fair enough - or too strict? Do you

think you should be able to style yourself at school

with hair dye and accessories, to give you some

individuality? Source: cbbc.co.uk
E-mail and let us know!

Emily, 34, Cardiff
I think it's the proper action by the school as her behaviour will act as a bad example

for the rest of the children. Unfortunately, today many teenagers copy their school

friends without understanding what they are doing. This kind of behaviour must stop!

Parents can help by preventing their children from wearing such ridiculous colours!

Task

 

A. Role play

Simon, 14, Birmingham
I think that schools shouldn't penalise you for dyeing your hair. It's your and your parent's business

if you are allowed to do it. It's really unfair, I used to go to a school that didn't even let girls use nail

polish or let guys have a beard. Now, I'm in a school that doesn't have any regulations and it's much

more comfortable. Anyway, what you do with your hair doesn't affect anybody else so you should

be able to do whatever you like. As long as your parents are OK with it.

A boy has recently come to school with his arms

heavily tattooed. This has been a shock for both

teachers and parents. In groups, take the role of the

head teacher, a parent, a student and a school friend

to discuss if students should be allowed to do this.

B. Write a report about the decision you reached in
your group.
