(Hampshire, UK) - Hoodies are banned from being seen on a Hampshire school’s premises, even during break-times.

Mike Jones, deputy headteacher of Brune Park Community School in Gosport, told reporters: ‘When you have large 15 and 16-year-olds wandering round in hoodies it can be quite intimidating, particularly for younger pupils. Some of these hoodies also have inappropriate images such as cannabis plants which creates the wrong impression.’

The policy, launched this term, now brings Brune Park in line with other schools in The Gosport and Fareham Multi-Academy Trust, including Mr Jones’s previous school, Bay House.
