A high school in the United Kingdom has banned high-end winterwear in order to protect the feelings of those who can’t afford expensive clothes, an effort it calls “poverty-proofing.”

Woodchurch High School outside of London has banned high-end winter jackets in an attempt to make students feel more comfortable at school. The ban targets brands like Canada Goose, whose jackets often retail for over $800.

Principal Rebekah Phillips said that the decision was made after consulting with students and their parents. “We are very concerned as a school about poverty-proofing our school environment and, as such, we met with groups of pupils and made the decision in consultation with them,” Phillips said.

The Woodchurch High School coat ban has sparked a discussion all around the world. Parents have chimed in on the policy.

“I think it’s a fair decision and other schools should follow in example,” one parent argued. “All the children in this school have to have the same bags, they are not allowed certain shoes and the coat is just another. This definitely stops bullying as all the children dress the same so no individual can be singled out. Good work Woodchurch High School.”
