    Regardless of how well the school performs, are you not concerned about the damage that will happen to your daughter's feet?

    I would not let her wear them if she was braking the school rules but she isn't braking the school rules
    But she could be breaking them.

    It's a high achieving school over 85% of students achieve atleast all Cs or above at GCSEs level
    That shouldn't be difficult to achieve , when standards required have been so watered down.


    C in GCSE used to be equivalent to a lower grade in the old GCE system, but now a GCSE grade C would nowhere near approach any GCE grade.

    Plantar fasciitis is one if the most painful conditions in the world. Ever.

    I have this. My previous walking shoes were not at all supportive and now I'm paying the price with daily pain that can verge on excruciating. This is just from one pair of shoes that I wore for little more than six weeks. I am a fully grown adult who's feet have long since stopped growing.

    If I am in this much pain every day from one pair of shoes now, what the hell kind of pain are you going to subject your daughter to by putting her in those boots at her age?!

    You are her mother. Act like it and take some responsibility
