School Rainwear

My mother still makes me wear traditional raincoats to school when my friends are allowed to wear jackets and anoraks. In summer months, I have to wear a blue nylon mackintosh falling to below the knee (button up style), and in winter a gaberdine raincoat. Does anyone else have to wear a similar raincoat?
