When Trisha Yates and Simon Shaw arrive at school, they are stopped by Jessica Samuels, who asks them if they are interested in the abolition of the school uniform and Trisha says she is. Jessica explains that they are starting a campaign to get something done about it. She then tells them that they are SAG, Student's Action Group, and are having a meeting at lunchtime and to come along.

At the meeting, Jessica is in the middle of explaining the reason they have to wear uniform is because it is a way of controlling the kids and it's like being branded. Jessica also points out the students are unable to act grown up and how some students go through real humiliation to afford a uniform.
