    </div><div class="va-bodytext">The 13-year-old Silverdale pupil is all hot and bothered about official uniform rules which allow girls to wear cool airy skirts - while the lads have to sweat it out in long trousers.
    This week's heatwave proved to be the last straw, stirring Billy into a one-pupil protest.
    &quot;Billy feels that the rules massively discriminate against boys in this kind of hot weather,&quot; explained his mum Jane at their home in Grange Cliffe Close, Millhouses.
    &quot;He's been upset about this for some time - why shouldn't the boys be able to wear shorts when it's as hot as this? Shorts can be just as smart as long trousers.&quot;
    &quot;Billy is on the school council and he brought it up as an issue last year, but no one took much notice of a Y7 lad,&quot; she said.
    To make his point Billy borrowed a skirt from one of the girls in his class - with an elasticated waist for comfort - and strode into class.
    He told The Star today: &quot;I got a few taunts but I was all right as I think they were only saying things jokingly.
    &quot;I'm planning to wear the skirt all week just to make a point. It was much better than wearing trousers because you get the air to your legs. The boys at school want me to keep wearing the skirt because they really want to wear shorts.&quot;
    Billy said he planned to take a petition into school today and get his classmates to back his calls for shorts to be allowed as part of the boys' school uniform.
    &quot;In some ways it was a bit of a joke but it was also a brave thing to do as he knew he was likely to get quite a bit of stick,&quot; Jane said.
    &quot;He tried to persuade his friends to join in his protest but they backed out. I actually sent in a letter to school last week asking for permission for Billy to wear shorts but he was refused.&quot;
    &quot;We are getting to a point where they will allow pupils to cross dress but won't let the boys wear shorts..&quot;
    Silverdale head teacher Helen Storey said: &quot;The school did have a uniform policy and parents knew this. Shorts at the moment are not part of the uniform but we are willing to consult on any changes.
    &quot;We realise it is very hot and we are taking a sensible attitude to dress. If he wants to wear a skirt he is welcome to.&quot;
    Who is right - Billy or the school?</div><div class="va-bodytext">
    Is Billy right? Should boys be allowed to shed their normal school uniform in favour of shorts - or skirts - in the hot weather? Join our online poll at sheffieldtoday.co.uk or tell us what you think by writing to the Editor, The Star, Sheffield, S1 1PU or by email at starletters@sheffieldnewspapers.co.uk. Yesterday we asked whether the fire-ravaged Fletchers Bakery in Sheffield should be rebuilt. Eighty six per cent of those who responded said yes .</div><div class="va-date" id="va-date">19 July 2006</div><div class="left"><div class="inactive">« Previous Page</div></div><div class="right"><div class="inactive">Next »</div></div><div class="centre">Page 1 of 1</div><br clear="all" /><div id="morestories">More News </div>

    But no shorts, not on your life. Very sensible I must say.

    &quot;We were going to do all the pictures at the park, but straight away we saw a bunch of youths and my mum knew something bad was going to happen.&quot; </p>

    I guess that i'm the only one that has no sympathy after that comment.</p>

    Honda 600.

    Kawasaki gear boxes are too clunky.

    Happy to help.

    I like that you can add your own comments.

    "Reygan" - what sort of a badly spelt Irish name is that then, probably travellers.
