UNIFORMS at a Barnsley school are set to get a new look thanks to parents' requests.
Kirk Balk Community College set up a uniform consultation last week in the form of an online survey open to parents, students and governors.
It invites them to express their views on uniform to be worn at the college from September and features proposals for all years, with different options for blazers and footwear. There is also a question if ties should be compulsory.
Vice principal Roger Goodwin said: "We have had many requests to review the uniform with some people saying it looks more primary than secondary.
"We decided to have a big debate. We did a smaller school survey first and the responses that came back were for a more formal uniform."
Last year, there was controversy about Kirk Balk's uniform when some parents claimed on We Are Barnsley that pupils had been isolated for wearing 'unsuitable trousers' and banned from wearing Remembrance Day poppies.
