英學校將著裝違規(guī)學生轟回家

因為穿了人字拖等不合規(guī)定的鞋子上學，諾丁漢一所學校的50多名學生在新學期的第一天被轟回家。

The headteacher of Djanogly City Academy defended teachers' actions and said being properly dressed was an important life lesson for children.
嘉諾格里城市學院的校長為老師這一做法辯護稱，對孩子們來說，學會得體地著裝是人生中很重要的一課。

據(jù)報道，開學第一天，大約100名學生因違反學校的著裝規(guī)定而被請出教室。在與父母聯(lián)系之后，其中56名學生被送回家換裝。

胡克說：“無論在學校還是在職場，穿著得體都是會讓我們的學生受益一生的一課。”

"It is our duty to give them every advantage and a key part of that is understanding that personal standards are very important."
“盡我們所能地給予他們競爭的優(yōu)勢是我們的責任，而其中一個關(guān)鍵部分就是要明白個人的行為標準非常重要。”
