“WE WANT MINI SKIRTS”- A SCHOOL STRIKES IN KENYA OVER MINI SKIRTS




“WE WANT MINI SKIRTS”- A SCHOOL STRIKES IN KENYA OVER MINI SKIRTS

Last week Rwathia Secondary School in Kangema Kenya, hit the media for all the wrong reasons. It was the topic of discussion over in the media circles, blogs and social media sites.
They found it best to strike because they claim that their school uniform is too long. It is difficult at this point in time to understand how the length of these girls’ skirts was affecting their academics but I will leave that to your imagination.
BLOGGER DISCLAIMER: I agree with a certain youth writer and columnist that strikes are more or less part of high school life. The high school strike fever is here, being 2nd term- the longest school calendar term. Strikes are polite picketing held by human right activists…they are inevitable.
From lack of adequate food, to a poor diet, to inadequate facilities, to poor teacher- student relationships… there will always be something our teens have against any educational system. The difference is in how it is expressed!
