Kept in School Uniform at Home

Hi my name is Ella and i'm 15. During the summer holidays this year my parents decided that I should wear school uniform at all times, not just at school. They started this three weeks before I went back to school. I have to wear it after school, at the weekend, and during the holidays. They say they won't let me change out of it until my behaviour and marks improve, and they might keep me like this until I go to uni. I have to wear a white blouse, green tie, black pleated skirt, black tights, grey wool jumper and black blazer. E-mail me at ellajones522@gmail.com if you want to talk to me about my uniform.

Do you think it's fair that my parents are doing this?
