    When it,s “Watercliffe Meadow”. Apparantly the headmistress has decided that calling it a school has “negative connotations” and
    it’s be renamed “A learning centre”.

    The children are allowed to wear slippers instead of shoes.

    What do you think? Is this yet another example of the PC brigade gone barmy?

    Be fair Bat – they aren’t allowed to wear dressing gowns or pyjamas though.

    BTW the slippers are worn to protect the nice new carpets from getting dirty in wet weather. Not too unreasonable eh?

    Many primary schools allow their children to do this – but that wouldn’t suite the Daily Mail who never wants to let the truth get in the way of a good argument.
