But a teacher on TikTok, who goes by the username @Misswhitebio, has revealed a number of outfits that are considered “inappropriate” for teachers to wear.

@Misswhitebio is American, so some rules may not apply to British schools. In addition, most schools have their own dress codes that staff must adhere to.

In a video liked by more than 373,000 people, she begins sarcastically: Welcome to my series on what not to wear as a teacher.

“Here’s outfit number one, try to think of why this wouldn’t be appropriate as a teacher.

“But mind you, all of these things are actually modest and very well put together.

“But we do have a very high standard when it comes to professionalism,” she added.

The first outfit shows a woman wearing a gray long-sleeved turtleneck sweater, over which she wears a loose-fitting V-neck sweater, jeans and flats.

@Misswhitebio commented: Feel free to tell me what’s wrong with this outfit. This one’s easy, everyone together now… jeans and holes in the jeans.

“Outfit number two – what’s wrong with this outfit? Why do teachers sometimes get sent home because of this?”

The second outfit was a female teacher in a classroom, dressed in light colored linen pants and a black sleeveless top.

@Misswhitebio said it would not be appropriate for a teacher to wear “no sleeves” at her school.

The third outfit she discussed consisted of white skinny jeans, sandals and a large striped T-shirt.

@Misswhitebio commented: “Look, what’s wrong with this outfit, what makes it unprofessional. Small holes at the knees.”

The last outfit discussed consisted of black leggings, a striped oversized t-shirt, a shacket and boots.

@Misswhitebio said: “She’s wearing leggings – not allowed.”

The video received thousands of comments, with one with 33.5k likes reading: “Your school seems very strict!”

But someone else said of the video: “This is exactly what my school is like.”

Someone wrote: “Bro, at my school I can’t wear baggy clothes that are too big.”

One comment read: “The ripped jeans, I knew right away. We were only allowed to wear jeans on Fridays.” And someone else had the same rule at school: “We’re only allowed to wear jeans on Fridays. But never rip jeans.”

Another teacher said, “I worked in a school where we weren’t allowed to wear open-toed shoes.”

Someone else who teaches at a school wrote: “I worked at a school where we weren’t allowed to wear open-toed shoes.”

A third teacher talked about the dress code at her school: “I worked at a school where we weren’t allowed to wear open-toed shoes.”
