I'm trying to find out.

If optimists wear nothing, cynics must wear too much I think.

Cynics wore a shawl so that ppl did not cast their evil eyes on his optimism 😆

Well, I'm kind of on 2 minds with this. I mean, you should have school uniforms to show discipline and make sure that you aren't wearing inappropriate clothes(especially girls) but at the same time, you need to wear something comfortable and something that suits you.

Uniform helps to create a strong sense school ethos and a sense of belonging to a particular community. As such it promotes discipline and helps to drive up academic standards.

Plus Uniform acts as a social leveller, under which all students are equal in the eyes of the school and of each other. In institutions without uniform students are often competitive and worry endlessly about their appearance and the clothes they should wear. Pupils without expensive designer clothes and trainers may be singled out as social outcasts, or stigmatised as being from poor backgrounds. For these reasons many parents prefer uniforms as they save them money on buying clothes for school wear.

well ive been wearing uniforms since the age of 7, and i started wearing my first tie at 9 years old, then when moving to college no unifroms were worn, i felt a bit awkward, i actually prefer uniforms.

i myself was born in uk and highschools in uk school uniform is mandatory

consisting of white shirt
school tie
black trousers

or alternatives are
jumpers or polo-shirts with high-school emblems

myself i didn't like wearing uniform
didn't wear school shirt n tie
only when the new alternatives of jumper n polo-shirt were introduced in my 5th year did i wear it, that too only coz i had too
if it was my choice i wud have not worn it at all

nice debate topics sabz 😊

Navy and white - elementary school
Khakhi and white - middle school
So called freedom - high school

When I was forced to wear a uniform, I hated it. Now that I look back, it makes sense ... children need discipline. Plus with the amount of skankwhores out there, uniforms become a must unfortunately.

Even coming out of school, and into the workplace setting. People still don't know how to dress. Just because there is no proper dress code does not mean that you can put on whatever you want. In the workplace, business casual is the way to go ... but people think just because you can't wear jeans, sweatpants cut it or something. Gets on my last nerve.

I'll have to ask Stacy London and Clinton Kelly on uniforms and get back.

Nice topic Sab
