Amharc ar fhreagraUnder the Education Act 1998, all recognised schools are managed by school boards of management. Individual school authorities are responsible for the drawing up of a school policy in relation to the wearing of uniforms. Decisions on changes to school uniform polices are a matter for school’s at local level. Schools are advised to consult with parents and students when drafting a policy on uniforms.
