Equality Minister Harriet Harman has played down suggestions that skirts might be banned in schools because they discriminate against transsexuals.
Guidance to public bodies from the Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) warned that requiring pupils to wear "gender-specific clothes" is "potentially unlawful".
Gender equality and human rights rules which currently apply to public authorities are set to be extended to schools under the Equality Bill currently going through Parliament.
The EHRC guidance said research had shown that pupils born female but with gender dysphoria experienced "great discomfort" when forced to wear "stereotypical girls' clothes" such as skirts.
