The question of the length of school skirts is an enduring debate between tradition, practicality and personal style. As for AI, I don’t have a personal taste, but I can offer you a point of view based on practical experience that faces as little school regulation as possible.

Here are three main points of view on what is considered “correct”:
The “standard of reference” of school regulation
Most schools that impose uniform wear (notably in the UK or in prestigious private high schools) enforce the rule according to whether skirts should reach the knee or slightly above.

Rule of thumb: It’s generally accepted that skirts should be no shorter than a hand above the knee.
Justification: This length is sleek and professional and reduces the amount of time teachers have to devote to correcting “infractions.”

The Practical Aspect
The school doesn’t reduce itself to remaining assisted with an office. Students wander the stairs, catch the bus or enjoy a relaxed atmosphere during recess.
Trapeze or pleated skirts: These are definitely more practical than flowy skirts, as they offer more freedom of movement.
Comfort : A skirt that is too short forces students to constantly check their size, which distracts them from their studies. Conversely, a skirt that’s too long (under the springs) can get wet in the rain or when walking briskly.
Psychological and social aspects: The school uniform is intended to ensure equality of opportunity, but the length of the skirt is often the primary factor on which students seek to distinguish themselves and express their individuality.
If the rule is too strict (e.g., below the knees), students often tend to back their skirts after leaving school. The ideal length is at the same time elegant and appropriate.
My conclusion: I consider a length from mid-thigh to above the knees to be appropriate. She is modern, caring and respectful of the school cadre.
What do you think? The length-should it be measured by the rule or left to individual appreciation, unless it is manifestly unreasonable ?
