    I went to a selective school in the 70s when long hair and Beatles moptops we're all the rage, yet school policy was short back and sides. We basically had to have a hair revolution to be allowed to wear long hair. And 50 years later, I can't believe we're still having the same debate.

    When has the length of ones hair ever affected their IQ?? and how much time do these schools employees waste on measuring every students hair length?? Shouldn't they be teaching children instead of measuring their hair?? and then to have the nerve to actually deny children who want to learn an education, just because of a couple of cm's difference in their hair length!?
    What a pointless and wasteful thing for a bunch of apparently educated adults to obsess over instead of doing, you know, their actual job..

      @@Freediver_72 Oh private school? Law unto themselves. Public schools encourage uniforms and such, but can't impose limits on things like hair length. From what I've seen, biggest issue with American schools is that they seem to be run by individual school boards who decide curriculum, what books the library's allowed to have and so on, instead of a uniform state or national curriculum. South Australian public schools are all run by the State - they have some local governance, but not where curriculum/books etc are concerned. It's set by the state and (largely) now by the National Curriculum, they're going for more uniformity. We just changed (couple of years ago) from a 7 years Primary school/5 years High school format to a 6 Primary/6 High like most other states have.

      I went to a Catholic High School in the seventies too, but at my school I don't remember hair length ever being an issue. This was 76 to 79 so maybe it was different earlier in the decade. If you watch the movie Dazed and Confused, that's pretty much what the people I went to school with looked like, how they talked and how they behaved.

    When I was in high school, the vice principal told me to cut my hair too. Mom wrote a note explaining that I always kept it clean and to back off. Not sure if my father being a former congressman played any part of not, but I got to keep my hair. That was 1967... hippies, anti-Vietnam war protests, Joan Baez, etc. Basically, the, what would now be called the "woke" crowd, had superseded the football players in popularity. Mine was a lot longer than that kid's.

    Private schools have rules, you cannot expect to come to school with messy hair and a dirty uniform. You are representing your school, this will apply in the future as well. I got educated in a private school and I loved it. They were rules, all boys and girls had to have uniform cleaned, boys had to have a standard haircut, girls hair had to be neatly tied. If you don't want to follow the rules, enrol your son in a government school. So stop complaining, you are nothing.

    You know the rules! If you don’t like it, change schools!

    It’s a Private School with a Dress Code that she agreed too before he enrolled. This is why she caved. The school should expel her son over the fact she went on national television to mock them.
