Students at Trinity College in Royal Leamington Spa on October 10 boycotted their first lesson in protest over the introduction of a uniform. The students were surveyed and voted to retain the existing dress code allowing them to wear their everyday dress. The school governors, however, sent parents a letter informing them that a school uniform would be compulsory for the new school year in September. One of the protestors, a 15-year-old girl said, "They will destroy the wonderful atmosphere of our school. They will take away our individualism if this goes ahead." Another student said, "They are just ignoring the views of everybody: parents, students and staff. When they asked us last May whether we wanted uniforms, most people said no. Quite a few parents agree with this protest." Head teacher Catherine Fields said a lot of the clothing that the students were wearing was not suitable for school. She added that she did not believe that a uniform suppressed anyone's individuality.
