All 40 pupils of school inside Sabarimala forests will wear 3/4th shorts and shirt
As debates continue over the unisex uniform policy in schools, a tribal school inside the Sabarimala forests is the latest to break the gendered story of girls in skirts and boys in trousers.
When the Government Tribal Lower Primary School at Attathodu reopens after the Christmas-New Year vacation, all 40 pupils in the institution, including 24 girls, will wear a 3/4th shorts and shirt. With this, it is set to become the first tribal school in the State, if not in the country, to embrace gender-neutral uniforms.
