A British school principal told parents their children could be sent home for dress code violations for wearing too much makeup or applying too much fake tan.
Peter Reed, headteacher at Maghull's Deyes High School in Sefton, England, sent a letter to parents saying certain appearance-related offenses would result in students being sent home to correct them, The Daily Telegraph reported Wednesday.
In the case of makeup a minority of your daughters attempt to use excessive amounts of foundation and tanning creams; I will again send home persistent offenders to correct their appearance accordingly,
he said.
Reed said students may also need to make a trip back home if they forget to bring uniform pieces, pens, gym gear, cooking supplies and science equipment.
In the case of persistent offenders I will send students home to correct their uniform and to collect appropriate equipment,
he said.
The letter also stated Reed's pride
that a significant number of visitors to the school are very complimentary about the behavior and the appearance of your sons and daughters.
He said the letter home was just a seasonal reminder.
