Teacher Inspires Kids to Draw Breathtaking Portraits of Refugee Kids Instead of Themselves
These kids were blown away when the portraits that they created of Syrian refugee children were actually given to the subjects they were based on.
These overheated schoolboys wore skirts to protest their academy's stuffy dress code – and were rewarded for their rebelliousness.
These teenage boys are social activists in the making.
Even though the schoolboys of Exeter's ISCA Academy were suffering from the summer heat, they still were banned from wearing shorts because of the traditional dress code.
To protest the stuffy school rules, however, 30 male students attended class collectively wearing the tartan skirts issued to the female students.

Students will also be allowed to ditch their ties, undo the first button of their school top, and untuck the shirts if they are feeling overheated.
