Considerably older than you would entail people who attended school in the 1940s.
An amusing, if irrelevant, adjunct to the discussion in hand.
No one's that old.

Must dash, else I'll be late for a quickie and a fag round the bike sheds.
I don't know whether the haughty tone adopted is intentional or not
More than once as well.I've explained this ad nauseum.
Ooh! Someone's in for double detention.Watch out everyone! The tone police have arrived
I can't imagine that youths (love that word) would ever abuse the right to go to the toilet to go to pre-arranged meetings with their friends to chat/vape/smoke weed/ sell drugs/buy drugs/ avoid lessons/ do some vandalism/ use social media to provoke fights.
I'm equally sure that schools are tightening up on toilet use out of sheer cruelty, and not at all after hours of thought, reasoning, debate, consultation at management level.
After all, as some of the most vociferouschildrenadults in this thread will attest, schools exist purely to cause deep psychological harm to young people, and the people who work within them get job satisfaction from sadism.

You are getting in a bit of a lather over this Tool.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

I think the school, the parents, pupils and everyone else should be more worried about the quality of the English teaching than the length of the skirts.
If a uniform is a must and skirt length such a concern, why not make everyone wear trousers?
Yes, don't be late for Sir round the bikesheds or he'll get jolly batey!
Who's going to keep cave!?
A well balanced, thought provoking article imo. Unlike the usual dross journalists write about what goes on in schools.
