I think the way British public schools are run are dog**** in a myriad of ways, including uniform.

I get why they exist but I don't think they're essential to the education of a child nor do I think they should be as strictly monitored as they are (like we had specific tie lengths, black socks only etc)

I'm for them. It'd reduce the risk of poor kids being ridiculed for cheap trainers and no designer labels. It gives everyone a kind of equality.

Besides, I found there was more ridiculing on the uniform days - if someone school shoes were tatty or old, if someone had a muddy blazer, if their tie or short had holes in, if their trousers were too short etc. And in the same sense, people would be ridiculed if they're were following the uniform policy too well (tucking in their shirt, tie at correct length, wearing smart trousers instead of jeans etc). Imo there's absolutely no difference when it comes to kids ridiculing each other over uniform or non uniform - it's all the same. It will happen in some instances regardless.

For, there’s enough time out of school hours for kids to dress how they want, school isn’t a fashion show.

For, I hated uniform at the time but I hated at college having to try and find a new outfit every single day, it was tiring

I think its a good thing, particularly for parents, getting kids out to school in the morning can be hard enough, add into the mix ' what am I wearing' and it becomes more of a drudge
It prepares students for life outside school, as in most work places there is a uniform of some description Also saves money as wearing the same clothes to school each day would not be acceptable to some kids

I'm for them (I don't like them) but like Livia said it kind of gives everyone equality, and the poor kids won't get picked on for wearing something so cheap and tatty.
We have to wear uniforms at work (well most places) anyway..

kids are not mature enough to wear their own clothes at school, you will get the i'm better than you because i'm wearing labels and you're wearing something from a charity shop etc

So why, when at school, can your parents spend upwards of £100 buying a uniform that's compulsory? I had two £35 blazers (they reccomended buying 2), two long sleeved shirts and two short sleeved £30 between them, two pairs of trousers £30 between them and a pair of school standard shoes £35. That alone is £130. Then Factor in every time I need new things because I've grown, or gone up a shoe size. |

Everyone in my college can wear the same outfit for 3/4 days in a row and go unnoticed - it doesn't seem that big of a deal
