I doubt it, for starters they are probably ensuring that their kids will be ridiculed by their classmates.
We seem to be steadily falling into a type of Harry Enfield 'Slobs' society.

Agreed. A really bad example to set to your children.

Not something my wife or I would do but I think the school needs to realise that their right to pontificate on these matters ends at the school gate.

Complete lack of self respect.
Something to be ashamed of that it's even considered "ok" in some circumstances.

It's a pretty chavvy thing to do but hey ho, that's the sort of world we live in now. Falling standards.
How the school plans to enforce a ban though I have no idea!

IMHO Them being taken to school by parents wearing PJ'S is bad it's lazy and shows a lack o self respect, parents turning up at parents evenings etc in PJs is an absolute disgrace I really can't imagine a scenario where it would be ok.

The parents evening one is beyond ridiculous.
A polite letter would not go a miss reminding parents that these kinds of actions bring down the reputation of the school.

As ever a story taken out of context for a good headline. The head asked if they would stop dropping their kids off in PJs. That is different to a ban as as already noted, a school technically has no jurisdiction on that. Schools and heads in particular are under so much pressure nowadays to get the kids getting so many GCSEs or scores at KS2 etc etc. Sometimes their livelihoods can depend on it and heads have been known to commit suicide on the basis of a bad ofsted inspection. When in fact a lot of the time the attitude of the parents is just as big a factor in the achievement of a pupil as the competence of the teachers.
So I imagine this head, and the one in the story where a head asked parents to ensure their children came to school with clean clothes on and had had a wash, were heads getting very frustrated at the attitude of some of the parents. But you also have to take into account some parents do genuinely need professional help, you tend to find that severe SEN pupils have parents who are very similar. So berating those parents won't do much good.

I agree with this ^^^ - we wonder why we have discipline issues in most schools? If the parent cant be arsed to get dressed to take you to school, what hope have schools got in trying to turn out rounded individuals
