A secondary school in northwestern England is barring expensive designer coats in an effort to eliminate “poverty-shaming” for students whose parents can’t afford the items.

Parents of students at Woodchurch High School were reportedly given a letter from the school that stated, “Pupils will not be permitted to bring in Canadian [sic] Goose and Monclair [sic] coats after the Christmas break.”

Pyrenex coats, which carry a similar price tag, are also prohibited.

About 46 percent of the school’s students are considered low-income, according to reports. For example, the school provides free sanitary products and limits backpacks to a certain type, so parents aren’t pressured to buy ones that are more expensive.

“They feel stigmatized, they feel left out, they feel inadequate,” Headteacher Rebekah Phillips told the Independent.
