The row reaches the national broadsheets as parents protest outside the school after pupils wearing either trousers that were deemed too tight or skirts too short were sent home or kept in isolation.
Dr Rory Fox was Principal at Ryde Academy on the Isle of Wight between December 2013 and February 2015.
He was no stranger to controversy, not shying aware from matters that he felt were important to improve education at the school. Reactions from parents of the pupils were mixed, with very strong feelings on both side of their views of his success.
He left the Academy in February 2015 to return to AET’s central services team in Essex to wok on other projects.
